The Four Paths

The Four Paths

Ancient Path Community is an incarnational and contemplative community of Jesus-followers who want to grow in our love for God, each other, and the world we are called to serve. 

We are called 

  •  to a life of transforming intimacy, wholly owned by God, lived out in child-like faith, wonder, and perpetual awareness of His Love.
  • to be Christ present on the earth, living holy lives of humble service and joyous proclamation of the Kingdom of God
  • to a vibrant life shared in truth, transparency, and grace, grounded in the love, justice, and mercy of God, sustained by the Word of God and energized by the spirit of God

The purpose of Ancient Path Community is 

  • to provide a way for Christ-followers to share life together in an inter-generational, multi-cultural, global community – in person and online
  • To encourage authentic Christian living, growth, and spiritual formation
  • To provide a safe place of interactive learning for people in all stages of their spiritual journeys
  • To train and equip people in kingdom living and provide opportunities for concrete action and learning activities

 This is how we know we are in him:
Whoever claims to live in him must
walk as Jesus did.  

1 John 2:5-6

As we follow Jesus, we find ourselves on these paths:

The Path of Passion:

  • Worship, prayer, meditation, contemplation, intercession and abandonment to God

The Path of the Cross:

  • The crucified life, fasted lifestyle, spiritual formation, obedience, humility, and simplicity

The Path of Mercy:

  • Compassionate heart, compassionate action, compassionate community, seeing the world through God’s eyes, and letting God break our hearts with the things that break His heart

The Path of the Kingdom:

  • Unconditional love, justice, eternal perspective, global perspective and movement, living the Beatitudes, preparing the Bride and engaging the culture
