DISCIPLES OF THE DANCE DEVOTIONALS...PURPOSE:  To increase your faith, to encourage you to include God in all aspects of your life, to mentor you in the process of renewing your mind, and to show you how to reconcile you with yourself, with God, and with others. 



     As a dancer, you will spend literally thousands of hours training in a classroom, performing for an audience or ministering to a congregation, in your lifetime. The practice of movement, its' technique and choreography, the preparation and thoughts of it, will, at times, run through your head continually throughout your day.You are always training to be stronger, more flexible, quicker, sharper, and better than you were last week. A lot of energy and brainpower are expended to this five-letter word...D A N C E.

     Enter the Christian Dancer's Monthly Devotionals. As a dancer, the pull is so great on you to focus on your art form, your body, your performance or ministry piece, that bringing God into the flow of your everyday can be the part that is mindlessly rushed through or completely skipped altogether.

     As a Christian, we are all called to develop our relationships and pursue fellowship with the God that created dance and created YOU! This is the concept and purpose of  the Christian Dancer's Monthly Devotionals...to aid and assist you, the Christian dancer, in your day-to-day growth and development. The purpose is to help you learn to combine the dancer-you with the spiritual-you along with the intellectual- thinking-you, your 3-part being.



 DISCIPLES OF THE DANCE DEVOTIONALS...VISION: To provide encouragement, stability, and structure to you, the Christian dancer, through the provision of materials, resources, information, and fellowship with others like yourself. To stir up the gifts and talents within you and guide you towards a positive, healthy Christian lifestyle with no compromise.



     In this information age and with the booming increase for sight and sound technology, you can become overloaded with noise, activity, and distracting static. Your alone time with God is just like plugging in your electronics at the charging station at a time of drained power. A recharging is the only remedy. 

     You may train in a secular school, where there is no guidance towards God and His ways. You may dance in a Christian environment, but you are pressured with time issues or carnal issues or weariness issues. These devotionals are to refresh, redirect, refocus, reaffirm, renew, re everything! The idea of that is, if you are a Christian, it means at one time you had it and you may have lost it or misplaced it. 

     Let these devotionals be spiritual AND practical to you. Look at them as vital nourishment to feed your spirit, to rewire your mind, as you train your body. My prayer is that you find awesomely different facets of God in a new and deeper place and you increase, grow, stretch, and lengthen as you develop as a Christian and a dancer. 

"That they should seek the Lord, and find Him, though He be not far from every one of us: for in Him we live and move and have our being." Acts 17:27-28
