Getting Fit - 1 Corinthians 9

Have you ever looked at a powerful athlete and wished you could have that athletic ability? On the spiritual side: Wouldn’t it be great to know the Bible and grow into a prayer warrior able to lead people to Christ and to have a flourishing faith? Most hope for instant results. Most of us want instant growth. We forget what is behind the powerful athlete or the godly person who has gone through various struggles and trials that has matured them. Spiritual development only comes through practicing spiritual disciplines. Another way to say this is that we need to cultivate some healthy habits if we ever expect to grow in holiness.
