|  | Soul Tending
Spiritual Soul Tending expands on the ideas put forth in The Godbearing Life by offering a practical way to study spiritual disciplines while strengthening relationships among participants. Youth and adults will be encouraged to co-journ by examining classical and contemporary disciplines, holding one another accountable to practicing the faith, and intentionally seeking encounters with God. The study will include lessons on inward, outward, and corporate disciplines, but the emphasis will be based on Paul's statement of longing to the church in Galatia that Christ would be formed in them. This study then, would encourage youth workers to share Paul's longing that Christ would be formed in their Senior High youth.$9.60 (20% discount)
