What do you want to be when you grow up? A question we’re often asked as children, but not often enough as adults; what are we aiming for? Not many of us would answer ‘I want to be mature’. Yet, it is with the goal of presenting us ‘mature in Christ’ that Paul strives ‘with all the energy Christ so powerfully works in’ him. So why maturity and what is it actually? Is it something we can actively pursue or a by-product of a way of life? What are signs of maturity? We’ll explore the surprisingly rich category of maturity and why it might prove a more helpful goal than we’d expect.
