From Maternity To Maturity

from HopeUC Banjara Hills Hosted by HopeUC Banjara Hills

Why does faith sometimes feel stuck even after years in church? In this episode, we unpack 1 John 2:12–14 and explore the three stages of spiritual growth: children, young warriors, and fathers. We talk about why time, knowledge, or church activity alone don’t produce maturity, and how true growth looks more like Christ. From learning to stand on God’s Word to deeply knowing Him through years of walking with Him, this conversation is a practical guide to understanding where you are spiritually and what growth looks like next.
