Well I had a reader email me asking "what are spiritual disciplines?" So here goes (from home without my books for help...oh no!). Spiritual disciplines are practices that Christians use in order to strengthen, grow and mature their relationship with God. Many of the disciplines were demonstrated by Jesus throughout the Gospels. Some of the more common ones that you probably already do are reading Scripture, worship and prayer.
Other disciplines include: fasting, meditating on Scripture, solitude, simplicity (living frugally) and many others.
Two great books on the disciplines are The Spirit of the Disciplines by Dallas Willard and Celebration of Discipline by Richard Foster. Check them out for ways to incorporate spiritual disciplines into your daily walk with Christ.
Peace
