We’ve started to meet up and delve into this amazing book together but there is still time to join us… keep reading and follow the links below.
The plan is over the twelve months of 2026, we’ll walk together through Richard Foster’s A Celebration of Discipline, a journey of spiritual strength, brotherhood, and transformation.
This is not just another Bible study, its purpose is to train and to equip in deeper ways than we have engaged before. Each month we’ll step into one of the books twelve classic disciplines / practices like prayer, fasting, simplicity, service, and celebration. These are not ancient rituals for monks, but powerful habits that shape us for the real life challenges we face today.
Together we’ll learn to quiet our heart before God, to live with focus and purpose, and to build rhythms that lead to lasting spiritual growth. We’ll discover freedom from the noise, courage to serve, and the joy of walking shoulder to shoulder with brothers who are pursuing the same goal, to become more like Jesus.
This year requires us to up our game, to step into places of challenge that will be tough at times, but we will learn to be men of depth, discipline, and devotion. We’ll move on from comfort to conviction, from distraction to purpose, from being believers to becoming disciples.
Join us for A Celebration of Discipline, a year of growth, challenge, and the joy of being shaped by God together.
Below are the session dates for 2026, we will aim to meet on the 3rd Wednesday Evening at 6.30pm for food followed by a study / feedback / equipping session at 7.30pm until around 9.00pm. We will be providing some links below to the resources for both prep and catch up. It is all free, but offers of help for setup, tear-down and food prep would be appreciated. There will also be opportunities to help with leading sessions as we grow and equip each other.
It will also be helpful to have your own book – Amazon has a few options, but other places may well be cheaper, but this link has kindle and other options too: – Buy the book here
