July 28 – Growing in Truth

In today’s episode, Pastor Jenny Dirmann shares a devotion from 2 Peter 2, where Peter warns believers about the danger of false teachers who reject the truth of the gospel and lead others away from Christ. Pastor Jenny explains that Peter is not describing sincere Christians who continue to struggle against sin while pursuing Jesus. Rather, he is addressing those who knowingly abandon the truth they once professed and actively encourage others to do the same. While every believer experiences the ongoing process of spiritual growth, God's grace covers those who walk in repentance and continue following Christ. The Christian life is one of growing in faith, self-control, perseverance, godliness, and love—not returning to a life that rejects Jesus altogether. Pastor Jenny encourages listeners to be discerning, grounding themselves in God's Word so they can recognize false teaching and remain firmly anchored in the truth. As we continue growing in our relationship with Christ, the Holy Spirit gives us wisdom to distinguish truth from error and the strength to remain faithful to the One who is the way, the truth, and the life.Today's Reading:July 28 – Isaiah 53–56; 2 Peter 2
