Spiritual Formation in the Local Church

As a pastoral leader seeking a deepening formation, a question that can eventually come up is, “What could this look like in the congregation or organization I serve? Also…how?”

We invite you to join The Abbey and the Denver Seminary Soul Care Initiative October 16-17 on the Denver Seminary Campus for two days of wondering about that together. Specifically, the question at the center of our time will be what role does Scripture play in integrating spiritual formation into the life of a local congregation?We’ll be guided by pastor and Denver Seminary alumnus Dave Ripper - author of Experiencing Scripture as a Disciple of Jesus: Reading the Bible like Dallas Willard. Framing the time in worship and practice will be our friend Becky Ykema, a pastoral leader who seeks to help cultivate healthier environments in the church.
