  3. I. Definitions: • Spirituality—“The intentional and continuous ordering of one’s orientation toward living all of life in the Spirit. Christian spirituality necessitates a willing surrender to the reigning presence of Christ. It is more a relational process than a list of do’s and don’ts. You surrender to Jesus as King over everything—thoughts, words, deeds.” (Dallas Willard, Spirit of the Disciplines)

  4. God’s Part: • “Kairotic Moment” = Times when God brings events together for optimum Kingdom Growth • Our Part: • Repent • Believe • Faith does not create reality—It accesses what God has already made real 14AfterJohn was put in prison, Jesus went into Galilee, proclaiming the good news of God.15"The time has come,"he said."The kingdom of God is near. Repent and believe the good news!" Mark 1:14-15
