  1. Men’s Journey GroupFall 2018 Simplify Your Spiritual Life by Donald Whitney

  2. Simplifying and Your Mind • Go on the offensive • Kill mindless media consumption • Embrace silent moments • Absorb wisdom and seek out the wise • Read (even a tiny bit) • Reflect back on good questions • Learn from other wise men (alive and dead) • Constantly connect God’s word to everything • Focus your mind on the goal (heaven)

  3. Simplifying and Your Mind Recite the Memory Verse In both this section and also in our discussion of the ‘Enemy within [book]’ we considered the importance of actively protecting and positively stimulating the mind. What are some of the dangers we welcome into our lives when we leave our mind unprotected and atrophied? (c.f. p108) On Pg 120 (end of chapter ‘Repeat the Truth’) Whitney asks“What biblical truth do you especially need to remember right now?” - Answer that question and discuss.

  4. Simplifying and Your Heart (Pt 1) • Fix your heart’s love on Jesus: • Gives endurance for suffering, reasons to fight sin, reasons to sing • Gives you a selfless focal point for your ambitions (Pt 2) Contentment • Where do you think He wants to begin your education in contentment? (p139) • What situation in your life do you need to apply the following truth “Knowing therefore, the infinite value of Christ, we can be content.”
