I wonder how framing spiritual formation in terms of “intentionally practicing being a child of God” might change the ways in which we engage, teach, and talk about spiritual formation and spiritual disciplines.

I believe in resurrection and the possibility of new life. I believe it will be better than we are able to imagine in the middle of the desert, where survival was the best we could hope for.
You take the good things when they come and try never to miss them, and then you get through the less desirable times. And you remember that there are always good parts, even if they’re little and can’t make the WHOLE day better
Resurrection occurs everyday. Have you seen it? You have to look for it.
Dry spells are a part of life. Being able to name them and make them holy, well that is a helpful thing. But what do you do when your life feels like Easter when the church is celebrating Lent?
