Series Overview

In this series, we will be looking at how to follow Jesus in our time and place through nine essential practices we see from the life of Jesus. We will be looking less at the how-to of these spiritual practices, and more at Jesus’ offer of an easy yoke and an invitation to sit in his presence as we are transformed by practicing the way of Jesus.
