Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Discipline is important in the Christian life, and it is important to understand what you will become. God’s elect will ultimately conform to the image of Christ, and until then, they are to grow toward it. #2 The pursuit of holiness is not what qualifies us to see the Lord. It’s the Lord who qualifies us to see Him. We cannot produce enough righteousness to impress God and gain admittance into heaven. Instead, we can only stand before God in the righteousness that has been earned by another, Jesus Christ. #3 The Bible teaches that Christians should discipline themselves in order to become mature and godly. The only road to Christian maturity and godliness passes through the practice of the Spiritual Disciplines. #4 The Spiritual Disciplines are the habits of devotion and experiential Christianity that have been practiced by the people of God since biblical times. They are the means of blessings for followers of Jesus and a part of their growth in godliness.

'You're worth it.' 'You deserve a break today.' 'Do something nice for yourself.' Commonly heard phrases in this society committed to self-gratification and individual rights. Doing things for other people is a waste of precious time, and asking for help, weak. So how do we build the church described in the Scriptures? In this day and age, how can we be a genuine community based on self-sacrifice and mutual commitment? In Spiritual Disciplines Within the Church, seminary professor, author, and former pastor Don Whitney shows us how to build a sense of community and be active participants instead of passive attendees. Whitney looks at such frequently asked questions as: Why can't I get by on my own? Why should I go to church? Why should I give of myself to the church? Why do I need to worship in church? Couldn't I just worship in nature? Why does it matter whether I become a member of the church?Committed love must mark the local expression of the body of Christ. By putting spiritual disciplines into practice in the church, congregations can return to the depth of community present in the New Testament church, where they 'devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.'
