'Hidden art' is found in the 'minor' areas of life. By 'minor' I (Edith Schaeffer)mean what is involved in the 'everyday' of anyone's life, rather than his career or profession. Each person has some talent which is unfulfilled in some 'hidden area' of his being, and which could be expressed and developed.

WORD OF THE YEAR - HEART
As a follow-up to the practicality of last year's word (steward),
I am focusing on what informs that Biblical action: a heart properly connected to the Creator ~
Per habit, an acrostic
H = HELP
E = EMPOWER
A = ABIDE
R = REVIVE
T = TRANSFORM
With these I will do Scripture-based word studies and also focus on Psalm 119: the very foundation for connecting one's heart to the Creator.
Not only will I read Psalm 119 methodically, but also will search for hymns/lyrics based on these verses. Daily readings from Charles Bridges' commentary on Psalm 119 are already underway.
Re-listening to a JCMIII Psalm 119 series: The Christian's Delight at Sermonaudio and referencing commentaries by Thomas Manton, John Calvin, and Matthew Henry supplement my study.
At church, Pastor Jess is preaching through Corinthians, so I will attempt to integrate his sermons with my personal devotions. In addition, I hope to read up on the life and times of the Corinthians: biography of the Apostle Paul (for example, historical fiction byTaylor Caldwell and movie _Peter and Paul_)
That sounds like a good start for 2024 ~
