Hey, what are you doing this Summer? Well, I know that you are probably trying to enjoy the Summer months and go to the pool, lake, beach, golf course, etc. Well, why not make the most of your Summer and use a little of your extra time to focus on your personal spiritual growth and development? I'm talking about working out SPIRITUALLY and ramping up your relationship with God. What if you went into spiritual training with the same fire and determination that Rocky trained for his title bout against Apollo Creed?
If you guys are up for the challenge, my upcoming series of blogs will be focused on helping us grow strong in the Lord. At Graystone Church, we will be studying through the book of James, so many of my blogs will be based on our daily quiet time plan beginning Monday, July 7.
So, to get started on our "Training for the Prize", look up Colossians 2:6-7.
What does it mean to continue to live in him?
What does it mean to be rooted and built up in him?
What does it mean to be strengthened in the faith?
What are some action steps we can take to continue in him, be rooted and built up, or strengthened in the faith?
PS Please feel free to keep the conversation going by making a comment to this and future posts.

I thik this is a great verse, so often the focus is so much on salvation. Salvation is key, but it is the beginning step to a lifetime. God wants so much more just like this verse says. He wants us to have deep roots in him
