YOU ARE INVITED ON A LIFELONG ADVENTURE IN FOLLOWING JESUS!]

The invitation is to an everyday jounrey in growing in following Jesus. This should impact every bit of our lives. The challenge is … how do we do it? All too often we know we should be daily picking up our cross and following Jesus but what does that actually look like in our day to day lives? That is where the Woven Rule of Life comes in. A rule of life is an ancient idea. Long ago ancient Christians who were attempting to take seriously this call to live a life daily grow as a disciple of Jesus formed into monasteries as monks or nuns who created a shared way of life that would help them grow as disciples. The habits they all agreed to do were called their ‘rule of life’. This wasn’t a rule as in a law that was there to be kept or broken. This was more a like a ruler that helps you draw a straight line. Each rule helped the community of Jesus followers to keep their lives aligned with Jesus as they grew and developed.

We need a modern version of a rule of life

to guide us daily as we walk as a community with God

The Woven Rule of Life is 10 habits that we want to all journey together with, supporting one another as we seek to be a community that grows as followers of Jesus. There are four ‘Together Habits’ and six ‘Solitary Habits’.

We’ve developed a number of resouces that explains each rule. You can get them online or download the booklet of resources (printed copies available in our services). You can also get them by downloading the church center app and you’ll find all the resources including the daily Bible readings there!
