"A Well-Ordered Life" is a multi-year Institute study, comprising eight separate series through which we examine what it means for us to communally model our lives after Jesus in our modern context.  By learning about the ancient practice of “Rule of Life”, this study explores how to live authentically spiritual lives in a way that doesn’t feel restrictive, but rather provides freedom and an abundance of peace and joy.
