Don’t know if you caught my last post about measurable goals, but here is another exercise I hope would be helpful for you. Donald Whitney, who wrote Spiritual Disciplines for the Christian Life, has written out some great questions to consider as you plan goals for your year.

You can get them at biblicalspirituality.org/newyear.html

One of the things that concerns me about our generation’s pursuit of Christ is that, at times, it can be pretty aimless. And I think that can bread ambivalence towards the things that Christ loves most.

So here is a good way to kill ambivalence. Hope it helps.

That’s an amazing list of goals. Very grace-filled, yet specific. Thanks Eric!
