With journal in hand, take several slow deep breaths. Invite God into your heart to show you what he would like you to see.


  • What occupies most of your time and attention?

​

  • Where is your first love these days?

​

  • What relationships need attention?

​

  • What temptations knock you for a loop?

​

  • Where do you rationalize, deny, and blame? 

​

  • Open your hands and release these things to God.  Confess what you need.  Ask him for his help. Thank him for his forgiveness.  Read through Psalm 32.

SMPL is great if you:

  • Want a daily connection with Jesus through the Bible.

  • Have daily time with Jesus and the Bible, but are looking for something that will permeate from your head more deeply into your heart.

  • Are looking for a community of brothers and sisters to share your relationship with Jesus.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

If there’s a day that I missed practicing SMPL, I could tell you that on those days the challenges that I battle with so much and lack of peace were apparent to me.

I think it is insane that when you draw near to God he will draw near to you. This is proving to be more and more and more true. In times of anxiety, anger, and fear, I am able to hear God’s heart better, more accurately.

This spiritual discipline has been an absolute game changer in my relationship with Jesus.

I had grown weary of stale Bible studies that only engaged my mind but not my heart.

...You will be surprised at how powerfully Jesus speaks to you, often in ways you didn’t expect.
