Ep 165 // How to Deepen Your Relationship with God: Spiritual Disciplines That Actually Transform You | Monica RitchieWhat does it actually mean to “go deeper with God”?Pray more. Read your Bible. Be still. Listen for God's voice. Practice Sabbath. Fast.We hear these invitations all the time in the Christian life—but sometimes no one tells us how to actually live them out. And even good spiritual practices can quietly become another checklist of things we think we need to do to be a “good Christian.”In this episode of the Kingdom Life Coaching Podcast, Megan welcomes back Monica Ritchie, author of the new book Fashioned by Faith: Spiritual Disciplines for Deepening Your Relationship with God, for a practical and honest conversation about what it looks like to create space for God to truly transform us.Monica shares the powerful encounter with God that cracked open her understanding of faith—and why even a dramatic encounter with God isn't enough to sustain a lifetime of spiritual growth. Real formation happens as we continually turn our hearts toward God and allow Him to shape us in the ordinary rhythms of everyday life.Megan and Monica explore prayer, fasting, Sabbath, Scripture, silence and solitude, lament, community, discernment, and hearing God's voice—but without turning spiritual formation into another exercise in Christian performance.Because spiritual disciplines aren't about earning God's love.You're already loved. They're an invitation to deeper relationship.In this episode, you'll discover:Why you can have a powerful encounter with God and still need the slow work of spiritual formationHow to pursue spiritual disciplines without falling into checklist Christianity or spiritual performanceWhy Monica thinks of sanctification more like a circle than a ladderHow to recognize the everyday things that may be shaping you more than your faithWhy prayer isn't only about talking to God—but creating room to hear from HimHow “wandering prayer” can turn your distracted thoughts into an opportunity for connection with the Holy SpiritHow to discern God's voice while maintaining healthy wisdom and skepticismWhy fasting may involve much more than giving up foodHow Monica's own “no-buy” fast exposed the role shopping had begun to play in her lifeWhy understanding biblical context can completely change how you experience Scripture and the character of GodThe difference between reading the Bible for information and formationWhy lament, anger, questions and disappointment don't scare GodHow to take your struggles “vertically” to God rather than only processing them horizontally with other peopleThe important difference between spiritual contentment and complacencyHow to choose one simple spiritual practice that fits the season God has you in right nowA question to carry with youWhat is fashioning you right now?We are all being formed by something—our habits, relationships, schedules, social media feeds, fears, desires, culture, successes and disappointments.The question isn't whether you're being formed. It's what is forming you—and who are you becoming as a result?Rather than trying to manufacture spiritual transformation, consider what it might look like to make room for God.Ask Him:Lord, what are You inviting me into in this season? Is there a practice that could help me become more attentive to You and more receptive to what You're doing in me?You don't have to master every spiritual discipline. Begin with the invitation God is placing in front of you today.Connect with Monica RitchiePick up Monica's new book, Fashioned by Faith: Spiritual Disciplines for Deepening Your Relationship with God, wherever books are sold.Follow Monica on Instagram and find her on Substack for more conversations about theology, faith and spiritual formation.And if you enjoy Fashioned by Faith, consider leaving Monica a review on Amazon or Goodreads.
