    Practice

    In an effort to, “renew our minds,” as disciples of Christ, each session will be framed by teachings from a member of Rockharbor’s pastoral team or a guest speaker and will extensively expand on material ranging from missions and ministry, historical theology, scripture, and more.

    Learning

    To help us integrate what we learn and discuss with each other into our daily life with God, each session will have a corresponding spiritual practice. These practices will include Sabbath, Prayer of Examen, Praying the Psalms, Lectio Divina, among others.
