Dive into the topic of personal growth in today’s episode with Abundant Life Church’s Family Pastor, Jeremy Brownlee. Married for twenty years, and father of four teenagers, Jeremy certainly has some wisdom to share.
Having a growth mindset means asking yourself the question “who can I become over the long run?” making sure you’re doing it for the right reason, all for Christ. When you put your faith in God, it not only strengthens your relationship with the Father, but He sanctifies you throughout life, growing in Christ and becoming more like Him.
A growth mindset is learning and developing into the best you can be, and ultimately who you were created to be. Being humble enough to learn from other peoples experiences is going to be a crucial part in life! People need people, we are not meant to do life alone.
Finally, it is key to be intentional about where/what you want to grow in. If it’s wisdom, study Proverbs, if it’s love, study Jesus’ earthly ministry through the gospel accounts. We are not meant to just “wing it” through life. Yes, trust God with everything, but also be intentional about knowing Him! Making time every day to spend with God and studying His word helps us grow from a spiritual baby to an adult, drinking milk to eating meat, and you will look back and see the wonderful story Gods written on your life and notice the unmistakable growth you’ve gone through!
