As a believer, are you growing?
I’m not asking if your involved in church functions or events, although that’s good.
I’m asking if your growing and becoming more Christlike.
I do believe that we should be involved with church, but this is really a small part of our growth.
We should be striving for that true life changing relationship with Jesus.
That’s the real measure of growth.
Contrary to what may be popular belief, your responsible for your own personal growth.
Your pastor, mentor, friends, and congregation are not solely responsible for your growth.
So, do you want to grow?
Growth is not immediate, it takes time.
Growth is not easy or accidental, but it’s essential.
We must grow!
Here are some steps to take that might help with your growth...
