050 - 5 Ways To Help Youth Own Their Spirituality In 2022

When it comes to spiritual growth, there’s only one person who can improve and strengthen that growth - you! In today’s episode of Changing, Donald dives into five ways you can foster spirituality in yourself and help others do the same.

Define your intentions

  • As a child of God, our ultimate goal is to join Him in Heaven. But what can we do now to get there?

  • You must be intentional. Set small, achievable goals instead of broad goals like being a better husband, wife or sibling.

  • Intentional goals (and plans to accomplish them) will put you on the path to success.

Be curious

  • There are countless examples of curiosity in the Bible leading to different answers and results.

  • Curiosity isn’t a bad thing. It helps you grow, improve, and develop a better understanding of the world and the history of the world around you.

Learn to listen to the spirit

  • What atmosphere helps you listen to the spirit? Whether it's the peace and solitude in nature, the background noise of a coffee shop, or meditating in the comfort of your living room.

  • Wherever puts you in the mood to listen to Christ and the spirit, do it more frequently?

Be anxiously engaged in worthwhile causes.

  • The organization justserve.org has tons of projects across the country that allow you to help people in your community.

  • Step away from your problems to focus on the issues of others and help other sons and daughters of Christ.

Associate with the right people.

  • When you associate with the right friends and people, you’ll be uplifted.

  • Evaluate the people around you. Are they helping you to become a better person?

  • If not, seek out people who’ll help you grow in your relationship with Christ.

As we continue through 2022, implement these five principles to grow your spirituality and develop a stronger relationship with Christ. To contact Donald to discuss growing in your relationship with God, contact him at donaldckelly09@gmail.com.
