SOUL TRAINING: MARGIN As a new believer, if you had asked our Pastor Emeritus, Dick Woodward, which books you should read, here’s how he would often respond. “The first two books to cover in discipleship are a person’s checkbook and datebook. The rest is just religious talk.” – Dick Woodward, late Pastor Emeritus As we think about how we spend our time and money, our priorities are immediately revealed. Take a few moments to reflect on what your current priorities are. What is God telling you your priorities should be? How do they line up with your current reality? Adding margin to your life creates the space needed to focus on what is really important. List below some of the key priorities God wants you to focus on.

There are many ways to create margin such as arriving early, cutting unnecessary entertainment, or scaling back commitments. Be honest and be ruthless with your schedule. Your spiritual, relational, and physical health depends on it. What adjustments can be made in your life to create more margin? Write down two adjustments you will commit to trying this week.
