Let's Uncomplicate What Spiritual Formation Looks Like

In this video, Matthew Bingham shares about spiritual formation. Keep your heart” (Proverbs 4:23). “Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling” (Philippians 2:12). “Grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ” (2 Peter 3:18). Scripture beckons Christians toward obedience and maturity, but many modern approaches to spiritual formation are less than biblical. In A Heart Aflame for God, Matthew C. Bingham studies God-ordained spiritual practices modeled by the 16th- and 17th-century Reformers. Primarily drawing from Puritan tradition, Bingham shows readers how to balance belief in salvation through faith with a responsibility for one’s personal spiritual growth. He studies biblical practices—including meditation, prayer, and self-examination—from a Protestant perspective. Blending historical analysis and practical application, this edifying study cultivates a greater understanding of Reformed theology and an ever-growing relationship with God. ❖ Check out ‘A Heart Aflame for God: A Reformed Approach to Spiritual Formation’ here: https://www.crossway.org/books/aheart... ❖ For more resources from Crossway, check our website: https://www.crossway.org/ ❖ Follow us on social media to stay up to date: Instagram:   / crosswaybooks   Facebook:  / crosswaybooks   X: https://x.com/crossway Threads: https://www.threads.net/@crosswaybooks
