| | Recently, Daniel said he is not spiritual enough to be a pastor. That brings up a question in my mind: What is spirituality? I found an answer by Yaconelli. What do you think? "Spirituality is not a formula; it is not a test. It is a relationship. Spirituality is not about competency; it is about intimacy. Spirituality is not about perfection; it is about connection. The way of the spiritual life begins where we are now in the mess of our lives. Accepting the reality of our broken, flawed lives is the beginning of spirituality, not because the spiritual life will remove our flaws, but because we let go of seeking perfection and instead seek God, the one who is present in the tangledness of our lives. Spirituality is not about being fixed; it is about God's being present in the mess of our unfixedness." Mike Yaconelli, Messy Spirituality (Zondervan, 2002), p. 13 Have you come across other definitions? Let's share it. |
