Here is a short document showing what I encourage the men whom I counsel to practice as life disciplines. It is certainly not an exhaustive list but is a start to get men in the Word and demonstrate their desire to seek the Lord in their lives.
Seven Spiritual Disciplines for Men
1) Individual Bible Reading, Bible Study or Bible Plans,
3) Personal and Corporate Worship,
4) Confession and Repentance of sins,
5) Sacrifice of Time, Talent, and Treasure in service,
6) Submission to God and other authorities in all things,
7) Fellowship with other believers, in church and outside.
I counsel them to write a brief description of where they presently are and where they would like to be in these seven areas.
I also encourage them by saying that there is no condemnation in any of these if they are not presently part of their Christian walk. There is great opportunity to be blessed and to bless others as they participate or take hold of any or all of these.
