Week Two Practice Plan
(September 28 - October 4)
Jesus says, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” (Matthew 4:17) In other words, change your mind, because a completely different kind of life is available to you.
We spent a lot of time this weekend talking about and wrestling through what a good and beautiful life looks like and who it’s available to.
Find a quiet time and place this week where you can be alone with Jesus for 15 minutes and work through these steps:
- Grab some paper or your journal and draw a line down the center of a blank page for a chart.
- On one side, write: “I believe a good and beautiful life is…” and on the other, write “Jesus tells me a good and beautiful life is…”
- Invite the Holy Spirit in, then begin to fill out both lists
- As you finish your lists, talk with Jesus about where you need to rethink what a good and beautiful life looks like. This is what it looks like to repent and experience the kingdom of heaven, which is at hand right now.
If you get stuck, look at the Sermon on the Mount, and let the Holy Spirit show you the things Jesus says are good and beautiful.
