Habits of Grace 2024
A joyful and victorious Christian life is built on three core habits of grace: reading the Bible to hear God's voice, engaging in prayer to respond relationally, and actively participating in a local church for fellowship and impact. These seemingly simple habits are God-designed channels for experiencing intimacy, growth and the joy of knowing Jesus. These are the most essential habits of grace if we are to live for God and His glory in effective ways at such a time as this.
We are excited to announce that we are partnering with Desiring God to host a conference at Cloverdale Baptist on October 25 & 26, 2024! David Mathis, executive editor for desiringGod.org and pastor at Cities Church, will be joining Pastor Rob Godard to speak on how we can enjoy Jesus through the spiritual disciplines. Our breakout sessions will focus on our spiritual growth as men, women, youth, and couples. Saturday lunch will also be provided for all in attendance.
