You had to wait a little longer for the episode this week, but it was worth it because this episode includes special guest Cali Sims!

This episode begins a two-part conversation on practical implications of the spiritual disciplines in your life and in the home with special guest Cali Sims! We discuss how to prioritize Scripture reading, prayer, fasting, and more. We also talk about how these things have been a blessing in our lives.

Here’s the recap from Matthew 6:5-18:

- The spiritual disciplines aren’t meant to be a chore or a checklist to get done, they are meant to help us delight in God and walk closer with him.

- Our culture wants us to think devotion is most shown in spontaneous, passionate acts of love, but both God’s love for us and our response in love to him are steadfast and consistent. The disciplines help us with this response.

- Prayer and fasting are meant to be ways that we commune with God and seek his glory and will above our own. When we trade that purpose to put on a show for others or treat them as a transaction, we forfeit the greater blessing.

- If we want to delight in God, we have to approach him and love him on his terms, not ours. He has laid this path out for us in the spiritual disciplines of prayer and fasting as well as others like Bible reading, corporate worship, fellowship with other believers, and confession of sin. We cannot neglect those and expect to walk in his blessing.

- All discipline must flow from a regenerate heart. It must be a response to what he has done for us, not an effort to get him to do something for us.

This week's “After the Sermon” episode goes deeper into the idea of religion vs. relationship and the concept of rewards in the Kingdom of Heaven. These are both pretty big topics, so this episode will only scratch the surface, but I hope it helps you as you seek to walk faithfully with God by his grace.

Check out our sermon from Sunday on the podcast if you missed it! While you’re there, go ahead and subscribe so you’ll get notifications when we post episodes.

Here’s the Sermon Recap:

- Though we are called to let our righteousness be a light to the world, Jesus also warns his followers not to practice their righteousness in order to receive praise from people.

- When we do righteous things like caring for the needy to receive recognition or feel better about ourselves, that is all the reward we will receive. Righteousness that receives eternal reward is done for God’s pleasure, not man’s recognition.

- Obedience does not always come from “feeling” like doing the right thing. Caring for the needy and other acts of righteousness done to please God even when we don’t feel like it is still obedience by faith.

- Christ was the greatest example of this principle when he endured the trials and suffering of sin and death for us. The only way we can live this out is to keep our eyes fixed on him and respond to his mercy and grace by doing the same for others.
