Summary:
In this episode, Wes and TJ delve into their personal journeys and how they were able to move away from legalistic approaches to spirituality, toward embracing a life of freedom in Christ. They emphasize the importance of understanding the foundation of freedom in Jesus before exploring spiritual disciplines.

Devotional Practices, when approached with the right attitude, can help cultivate a continuous connection with God throughout the day. Wes and TJ stress the importance of not compartmentalizing life into "secular" and "holy" moments, but instead recognizing that God is present in all aspects of life.

The bottom line is this, freedom in Christ serves as the foundation for embracing spiritual formation without it becoming just another attempt to escape feelings of condemnation.
