INTRODUCTION: Spiritual Discipline is practicing and applying what you teach, believe, study and preach(Micah 6:8; James 1:22). The Five Smooth Stones of Discipline are as follows:  Sacrifice-Rom 12:1, Obedience-Heb. 11;6, Purpose-Dan. 1:8, Accountability-Rom. 14:12, and Discipline- 1 Cor. 9:25. Discipline makes you a better person(11 Cor. 3:2,;Jude 22).
