Spiritual maturity is more than knowing about Christ. It is growing up in Him. In this episode, we explore Ephesians 4:11–16 and what it looks like for every part of the body of Christ to grow, mature, and function in the role God has given us.

What is shaping the way you think? In this episode, we look at Romans 12:2 and the difference between being conformed to the world and being transformed by the renewing of our minds. As we yield to the Holy Spirit, our thinking changes, our discernment grows, and we begin to recognize God's will.

In Episode 2 of Series 8, we go deeper into 2 Corinthians 3:18 and the transforming work of the Holy Spirit. We explore what it means to come before God unveiled, continually behold Him, and become more like Christ. Unveiled. Beholding. Becoming.
