It’s a standard, offering guidance and encouraging growth in the right direction. It’s a way of living  intentionally—of making a commitment to spiritual disciplines that are too important to leave up to our day-to-day  whims. And the best way to take on a rule of life? Doing it with others. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003ePracticing Life Together \u003c\/i\u003einvites  emerging adults to consider participating in a common rule that will guide their growth and cultivate genuine community.  As Dietrich Bonhoeffer discerned, Christian community is “not an ideal which we must realize; it is rather a reality  created by God in Christ in which we may participate.” Christians don’t have to go it alone during the formative  years after college—it’s possible to practice life together. Paul Gutacker introduces practices we can take  up with others—communal prayer, weekly dinners, studying together, and Sabbath—in the hope that these can become  life-shaping habits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"MOPR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40664824217729,"sku":"463043","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0561\/8070\/3361\/files\/1152579_1_70f3f38a-88d2-43c7-aa9e-f172f363aff0.jpg?v=1781340038","url":"https:\/\/www.soacb.com\/products\/practicing-life-together","provider":"Seed of Abraham Christian Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
