Celebration of Discipline turns forty this year and our articles and podcasts will focus on one discipline per month. Since yielding to God is the goal of all spiritual disciplines, it’s fitting to start this journey with Submission. In this episode, Nathan Foster reminds us why disciplines aren’t “twelve new things to fail at” but rather entry points to life with God.
