What if there were practical steps you could take toward Christian maturity? What if there were specific ways to workout your faith? Would you have the discipline to actually do them?

Welcome to the spiritual disciplines: bible reading, prayer, fasting, scripture memory, evangelism, and more.

This bible study is a distillation of Dr. Donald Whitney’s Spiritual Disciplines of the Christian Life. The lessons are meant to provide an outline for teaching through the book. Teachers ought to read the corresponding chapter or chapters in Dr. Whitney’s book as preparation to teach each lesson.
