Rule of Life
A simple path for radical discipleship and formation
Jesus’ call to discipleship is one that involves our whole lives. Throughout history, this aligning to Jesus has been most clearly evident in the spiritual disciplines are rhythms of grace that allow God to meet us in our everyday ordinary life. Our conviction at Garden Church is that we are to adopt these rhythms as a countercultural act of obedience to our teacher Jesus.
These resources will help guide you in exploring sections that coincide with our Garden Church values and the Garden Rule of Life.
