Philippians 2:5 Have the same mind among you that was in Christ Jesus…
Practically Holy is a mentoring community dedicated to empowering people to help each other as a practical and sustainable expression of their faith in Jesus Christ. We built practicallyholy.com as a resource for people who want to nurture the members of their local congregations, while enriching their service as a congregation to their local communities, in the name of Jesus Christ. I have been helping people around the world discover and pursue God’s purpose for them in Jesus Christ for over thirty years. Over that time God has blessed me with a group of talented and faithful people dedicated to helping me encourage others to do the same. Our goal is encouraging people as they dedicate themselves to loving God and honoring God’s love for others, as faithful members of their local congregations and committed members of their local communities.
Our motivating questions are, how do we become the people that God made us to be for the benefit of others while maintaining our health and well-being? How do we follow Jesus Christ and live for God’s glory in a way that keeps making room for more people? How do we build a community of people that love God and honor God’s love for others, from generation to generation? We have found that managing our time, replenishing our energy, and focusing our attention is critical to establishing a sustainable rhythm for our web of relationships with God and each other, throughout our lifetime.
That’s what Practically Holy is all about. Pursuing our common humanity in Jesus Christ by honoring our God-given purpose and boundaries, as we follow Jesus Christ together, and help others do the same, as dedicated members of our communities, from generation to generation.
