The Playbook For Growth
Ephesians 4:11-16
The Reality of Growth
Growth begins with desire
Growth is focused on development
Growth happens through discipline
Growth requires great determination
Why do people not experience growth?
They stop listening – absorbing and accepting the truth about God
They stop learning – understanding the meaning of Truth and it implications
They stop obeying – putting the Truth into action in our lives
It was he who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers, to prepare God’s people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ. Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of men in their deceitful scheming. Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into him who is the Head, that is, Christ. From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.
