The Devotional Life: Don’t neglect God - To take time for personal retreats to meet with God; to sense God’s presence daily; to know God as our Shepherd and Master; to guard our quiet time; to keep the Sabbath; to have a stronger prayer life; to deal thoroughly with sin in true and complete repentance. 2. The Developmental Life: Don’t neglect self - To grow in our grasp of God’s Word; to have an enriching reading plan; to have regular exercise; to rest and recharge; to learn from and interact with mentors; to keep a personal mission statement and to write in a journal; to have spiritual partners in a loving relationship of accountability. 3. The Domestic Life: Don’t neglect your family - To know the needs of my family; to give time to meet my family’s needs; to let my family feel that I am available to them; to keep family rituals that are enriching; to have family devotions; to pray with my family members; to know how my family members see me. Our church should not be satisfied with figures. Without discipleship from the inside out, we can easily burn out or can merely run on empty! 2015 Youth Winter Retreat: We will be having our special Friday Night program as part of our retreat on 2/13 @ 8 p.m. All youth retreat participants need to check in when you arrive at the Youth Center.
