Three Doors: Prayer, Simplicity, and Celebration

A seven-minute word for the congregation on three of Richard Foster’s spiritual disciplines: prayer from the inward life, simplicity from the outward life, and celebration from the life we share. Prayer is communion, not a technique. Simplicity is trust that becomes a visible life. Celebration is joy practiced together, not a mood we wait to feel. Sit down. Put something back. Sing with the people. Drawn from Foster’s Celebration of Discipline and Willard’s The Spirit of the Disciplines.
