The Bible’s WARNING about Spiritual Discipline

Prayer. Fasting. Scripture memorization. Spiritual routines. They’re often praised as signs of maturity, but can they be used in a way that leads in the wrong direction? Kyle Winkler uncovers a warning woven throughout the New Testament about spiritual discipline, and why Scripture repeatedly corrects how it’s commonly understood and applied today. This message isn’t about abandoning prayer, Scripture or devotion. It’s about examining what spiritual practices were meant to accomplish—and what they were never meant to do. Many believers take on increased effort hoping for peace, growth, or closeness with God, only to find themselves feeling the exact opposite. You’ll discover: * Why the phrase “spiritual discipline” never appears in the Bible * How good spiritual practices can quietly become harmful * A simple test that reveals if what you’re doing is helping or hurting Connect with me on social media: https://www.facebook.com/kylewinklerministries https://www.instagram.com/kylejwinkler https://www.tiktok.com/@iamkylewinkler #grace #spiritualdiscipline #biblestudy
