Now Basically to sum it all up my definition of Spirituality is something that you feel and have that's far beyond the physical{something you can see, feel, or touch}. If you choose to follow Christ you are making spiritual progress. If you feel in your heart that you are living his word and acting more like him and you actually feel a closeness and imtimacy to Him you are progressing spiritually. Anything that brings you closer to God is spiritual progress. It doesn't have to be somethings major
