Before Christianity was even dubbed a religion, it was considered a way to be practiced and followed. Christians were known as people of the way, following and being led by Jesus. In an age of countless spiritualties, religions, and worldviews, Jesus offers a way of being and therefore living unlike any other. He lovingly calls us to reject other ways of life. He calls us to rearrange our lives to be His disciples. He calls us to FOLLOW Him, and as we follow Him, we are formed to be more like Him.
Christian spiritual formation is the redemptive, grace-empowered process where people partner with the Holy Spirit to (trans)form the heart (a person’s innermost dimension) to the definitive form or character of Jesus, the true human. In other words, Christian spiritual formation is the process of becoming truly human.
Northwest University is committed to cultivating the spiritually vitality of our community and fostering spiritual formation within each individual member. To that end the staff, faculty, and students of NU have put together these devotionals. It is our collective prayer that these devotionals will provide you a space to meditate, pray, and grow in your spiritual formation as you follow Jesus.
