An Ordinary Day with Jesus curriculum looks at various aspects of an ordinary day and how we can connect with Jesus in those moments.
Course participants will learn how to:
- Wake up and go to sleep in Jesus' name
- Review their day with God
- Use training rather than trying to become more like Jesus
- Learn from difficult people
- Silence competing voices in order to hear God's leadings
- Experience time alone with God as an opportunity not an obligation
- Use their own unique spiritual pathway to connect with God
- Eliminate hurry and simplify their pace of life
- Plan their own ordinary day with Jesus
Best of all, participants will learn that experiencing God's presence in their everyday lives doesn't necessarily mean doing new things. It means doing the things they already do, but in new ways-in Jesus' name.
The promise of this course is that it is possible for us to live every day with Jesus—one day at a time. When this starts to happen consistently, life gets exciting—because when we start experiencing the reality of God's presence with us every day, life isn't ordinary any more!
The course structure is flexible so sessions may be taught in a variety of formats: a Friday night/Saturday seminar, four two-and-a-half-hour sessions, eight one-hour Sunday school sessions, etc.
The eight sessions are:
1. Living in Jesus' Name
2. Everyday Relationships
3. Work
4. Leadings
5. Solitude
6. Spiritual Pathways
7. Pace of Life
8. Making the Ordinary Extraordinary.
