We all want to become mature in Christ, but how does one actively and intentionally build maturity in their walk with Jesus? There are a few common traits that identify mature Christ-followers and help them to continue growing.

Spiritual growth can be hard  but we as followers of Jesus are called to become like Jesus. He is working in us but he has also called us to work as well through practicing disciplines to make us more like him.

Every journey begins with a single step.  But how do you know what the right step to take is when it comes to your spiritual journey?  Identify with us what your next step is as we listen to Jesus’ invitation to, “Come, follow Me!”

Christmas is a spiritual eye test, asking us if we will allow the light of Jesus to guide us. How is Jesus’ light driving out the darkness in your life and in the world?

The Christmas story is ultimately a love story. Jesus enters the world to demonstrate the love of God, invite us to receive it, and show us how to truly love others.

As people we sometimes act counterproductively to the outcomes we want to see in our lives.  The results of this in our spiritual lives can be catastrophic.  Paul urges believers to be totally surrendered to Jesus in 1 Corinthians 10:14-11:1.

We can receive God’s blessings but not receive the eternal life he offers. Paul gives a warning to not trust in God’s blessings but gives hope in Jesus.

Athletes display great perseverance and determination in order to compete at the highest levels.  The Apostle Paul uses the metaphor of athletics to describe the race of faith and urges believers to keep their eyes on the prize.

We take our freedoms and rights very seriously. What’s the purpose of these freedoms and rights? Paul instructs the church in Corinth to consider voluntarily giving up these rights like he did in order to reach as many people with the Gospel as possible.

Jesus’ followers help each other live for him, even to the point of surrendering personal freedoms.
