#LIVINGTOGETHER: How To Pray the Examen: Part of our Rule of Life at Woven is praying our Examen. We have a special prayer used by our community to examine ourselves before God.

#LIVINGTOGETHER: How To Build My Community: Community takes work. “Might we” consider the community a bit more?

#LIVINGTOGETHER: How To Listen Well In Community: Confession is the pathway to revival; without it the community cannot break through to communion.

#LIVINGTOGETHER: How Does God Call To Ministry? - Our calling to ministry often turns up in the least-expected places.

#LIVINGTOGETHER: How To Face Monday Morning - The secret to facing Monday morning is seeing your work as prayer, not prison.

#LIVINGTOGETHER: The Day’s Work - Without work, prayer is not prayer, and without prayer, work is not work.

#LIVINGTOGETHER: The Secret of the Psalter - Praying Scripture such as the Psalms taps into the deepest well in your soul. Today we learn how to pray the Psalms as we learn about #LivingTogether.

#LIVINGTOGETHER: Rule of Life - Do you have a Rule of Life? It need not be strict, but it is necessary for you to set a rhythm and a schedule for your spiritual practices.

#LIVINGTOGETHER: Not An Ideal - Community is not an ideal, but a reality. We are moving beyond wish dreams to true spiritual love.

#LIVINGTOGETHER: The Parish Concept - The painful message in Bonhoeffer is that every community built on human love will dissolve. Community is not selected, it is accepted.

#LIVINGTOGETHER: Human Love vs. Spiritual Love - Bonhoeffer makes the distinction between “human love” which is flawed, and “spiritual love” which is the Ideal. We’ re learning about #Living Together

An exposition on Daniel 5:1-31. The writing is on the wall. How do we weigh on the scales?

An exposition on Matthew 26:6-13. Woven staffer, Ashley Park, speaks on the Heart of Worship, from Matthew 26:6-13.

An exposition on Daniel 4:1-37. The story of Babylon is one of dancing with power. We are most sane when we realize we are not God.

An exposition on Daniel 2:31-49. The vision of Daniel 2 speaks of an overtaking Kingdom that cannot be defeated, for it is Defeat. The cross conquers in a way that no sword can.

An exposition on Daniel 2:1-30. Daniel exercises an uncommon wisdom characteristic of those through the ages who have walked with God.

An exposition on Daniel 1:9-21. The Book of Daniel exemplifies the covenantal blessing of God remaining on His children even in exile. We too bear that blessing.

An exposition on Daniel 1:1-8. The Book of Daniel explores themes of influence. The people of God are not to be the influenced, but the influencers of society.

Change is harder than we thought! It also involves unearthing of deep emotions and past ruts that have us stuck. But persist – more will be revealed!

As we begin this new year and new series, may the Spirit inspire & illuminate, bringing about noticeable change in our lives we never thought possible!
