We engage in meditation
Disciplined meditation, which the Puritans described as a “halfway house” between Scripture reading and prayer, offers numerous benefits.

Christ Matures Faith in Himself: Granting Faith; Strengthening Faith; Providing Faith.
We faithfully attend prayer meetings

The Puritan Method of Missionary Praying
While the Puritans resisted prescribed forms and relied on the Holy Spirit’s help for prayer, they also embraced methods of promoting and guiding such prayer.

Don’t Murmur Against God and His Name
God and His Name: Remember who God is! Stop your grumbling and cursing! Use God's name with reverence and gratitude!
We practice good stewardship
We make our commitment to Christ’s cause practical by giving money.

As the high priest carried the blood of the sacrifices into the Holy of Holies, so Christ has virtually carried His blood into heaven. (Heb. 9:12)
