Practicing Faith & Spiritual Care
Pepperdine, we believe faith is to be practiced. We never arrive at or happen upon a perfected faith, but we practice faith day by day. Spiritual practices serve as a rhythm of life by which we encounter God. Practicing your faith is not an assignment. Not a to-do list. Not a reason to feel shame or beat yourself up for not doing it “right.” In fact, there is no “right” or “best way” to practice.
