Maturing on the Move: From Shallow Faith to Deep Roots

A Journalist goes to this famous hospital and asks – are there any big men who were born here? And the nurse answers, no sir, only babies are born here.

We all come into the kingdom born again as babies, regardless of age. And just as in the natural, we go through the stages of growth –

  1. Infants: 1 Peter 2:2 “Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation”

  2. Children: Eph 4:14 “so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and from by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes”

  3. Young men and women 1 John 2: 14 “I write to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God lives in you, and you have overcome the evil one.”

  4. Mature manhood / womanhood – Hebrews 5:13 “But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil.” Maturity is the ability to prioritize values over impulses.” Stephen Covey.
