What we are talking about here is the process of formation: allowing ourselves to be formed a certain way. Most of us have already done great at being formed by the consumer culture we’re immersed in. We have adapted quite well to the rhythms of suburbia and even stuck a Jesus fish on some of them. To cultivate Spiritual* formation, then, means to find ways to immerse ourselves in the work of the Spirit—to re-sync ourselves to the rhythms of the kingdom of God.
