Life Circles

The goal of spiritual formation is to develop practices that help us recognize God’s presence and sense God’s voice. We want to know God personally, not just know facts about him. Everything is grounded in the Bible and Christian community.

These practices are easy and the resources are free. Download and copy as many as you need.

• Simple practices to grow in your awareness of God
  Intercession, Contemplative Prayer, the Examen, Interactive Prayer Rooms, Prayer Walking

Learning to truly keep confidences

Each video is 3-6 minutes long and introduces a Spiritual Formation Practice associated with that session.  You do not have to be in a group to watch the videos.  If you are a group facilitator, you can use the video to prepare, or show it to participants during the session.  The introductory video on how to lead a group, can also be shown during Session 8 to encourage participants to facilitate new groups. Videos are currently available in English and Portuguese.

Each has information and links to these and other free Spiritual Formation resources, such as Phone apps, YouTube videos, downloads, and online courses. (Available in English and Portuguese.)
