The 6 Stages in Our Journey of Faith - Aaron McRae
from Hillside Community Church
What if the plateau you're feeling isn't failure — it's just one stage of a much longer road?In the final week of our "What We Believe" series, Pastor Aaron McRae maps out the real stages of a life of faith — from first discovering God, to the busyness of serving, to a harder inward season many people never talk about, and finally into a life marked less by striving and more by love. Drawing on Jesus' words in John 15 and research showing most Christians plateau far short of real transformation, Aaron makes the case that getting stuck isn't the end of the story — it might just mean you're due for a turn you didn't expect.This teaching:Why "being active at church" and spiritual transformation aren't the same thingWhat "the Wall" is, and why it's often a sign of growth, not failureOne honest question to ask about where you actually are on this journeyScripture: John 15:1–17#HillsideChurch #AaronMcRae #WhatWeBelieve #ChristianLifeSeries #SpiritualGrowth #John15 #FaithJourney #Discipleship #CriticalJourney #SpiritualFormation #StuckInFaith #ChristianMaturityFor the full gathering of this message which includes worship, visit our Youtube channel.
