Spiritual Growth
Families on the RISE is dedicated to your spiritual growth. What has helped me grow as a Christian are reading the word daily and praying often. Below are a list of daily devotionals that I have used. I also will post a spiritual blog each month to encourage you.
Spiritual Devotionals
- Our Daily Bread - I have read Our Daily Bread Devotionals for over 25 years now. When I was in graduate school at the University of Georgia in Athens, I met an elderly lady who introduced me to Our Daily Bread. Each morning, I read the scripture and the devotional that accompanies it. That way, I am able to read a part of the Bible each day and learn how to apply it to my daily life.
- One Place Devotionals - These devotionals are presented by various people, including Dr. Tony Evans, a pastor in Dallas, TX. You may know his daughter, Priscilla Shirer who is an awesome evangelist and starred in War Room. Dr. Evans is an amazing man of God, and he also had a podcast that you can subscribe to here.
- In Touch Ministries - In Touch Ministries is the teaching ministry of Dr. Charles Stanley of Atlanta, GA and is dedicated to leading people worldwide into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ and strengthening the local church. You can read these devotionals or you can listen to the recordings, like on your way to or from work.
PLUG in to GOD
God is the source of our being, and we must rely on Him for our spiritual and physical sustenance. To do that, we must connect to Him on a daily basis through prayer and reading His word.
