Spiritual Intimacy Part 3

Continuing our journey to find and apply actions steps that will help us in our spiritual intimacy, the next action step we look at is,Bible study and spiritual learning.

Many couples find studying the Bible together a comfortable way to build spiritual intimacy. The downside is that studying together often takes more time than praying together, and it can feel impersonal if the study is more technical than reflective. Few couples will feel very close studying the ontological argument for God’s existence, for example. The key to building spiritual intimacy through religious spiritual study is bringing in one’s own personal reflection. Ask, how does this particular Scripture convict, encourage, or challenge us? Sharing and listening to each other’s reflections are key components of building spiritual closeness through study.

We got one more area to look at I'll post soon.
