A Repeated Bodily Practice
Christian spiritual discipline is a repeated bodily practice, done over and over again in dependence on the Holy Spirit and under the direction of Jesus and other wise teachers in his Way, to enable one to get good at certain things in life that one cannot do by direct effort.
In the same way that “golf flesh” resides in specific body parts, for example, the wrists, so sinful habits often reside in specific body parts, for example, anxiety primarily in the brain and nervous system, gossip in the tongue and mouth, and lust in the eyes. A spiritual discipline is a repetitive practice that targets one of these areas in order to replace bad habits with good ones in dependence on the Spirit of the living God.
