Spiritual Practices: Discipline and Rest

This week our spiritual practices meetup will focus on Jesus' teaching in Matthew 11:28-30, "Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."

What is Jesus calling us to do? What is this yoke, or burden? And how does taking up a burden bring rest to our souls?

These are the questions we will explore. We will read an extended excerpt from Dallas Willard's book, the Spirit of the Disciplines, read some relevant scripture passages, and then have a group discussion on the topic.

If you are interested in the group, but haven't come before, this is a great opportunity to jump in. See you there!
