Monday, November 13:On this week's episode of The Daily Grind with John Spencer we delve into Week Ten of our exploration of "Celebration Of Discipline" by Richard Foster. This time, we're focusing on Chapter 10: The Discipline of Worship. Foster takes us on a journey through the concept of "holy expectancy" in worship, drawing inspiration from biblical figures like Moses, Isaiah, and John.
Discover the transformative power of approaching worship with a heart tuned to God's divine initiative. From the awe-inspiring scenes in Solomon's temple to the revelations on Patmos, we explore how these extraordinary encounters can inspire our seemingly ordinary worship experiences.
Join us as we discuss George Fox's advice on meeting in the Name of Jesus and Foster's insights on cultivating holy expectancy in our daily lives. Learn how maintaining a quiet inner posture of listening, worshiping, and talking with God can deepen our connection with the divine and shape our thoughts, actions, and conversations.
Don't miss this insightful episode that encourages us to go beyond the routine and connect with Jesus in our everyday moments. Check out the show notes for Foster's recommended scripture reading to enhance your journey of ongoing connection with God.
