Habits of Enhancement: Prayer



Last week we took a look at the second chapter of Family Worship. The author gave examples of people of the past (and present) who have taught about and modeled practices that are "habits of enhancement." These are daily habits of prayer, Scripture reading, singing songs, as well as other things that enhance the life of worship.

Such habits have great importance. That's why Christians throughout generations have regularly practiced them. One cannot live the Christian life well without them.

Some of you might be thinking of something like the Faith 5, a simple method for family devotions that has been put out by Faith Inkubators in recent years. This is very similar to these habits. Faith 5 includes more than just these practices, and focuses on the importance of sharing and connecting with one another. The difference is that we're focusing more specifically on understanding these as spiritual practices that form our lives as lives of worship.
