How do you mature in your faith? The Bible says it’s not about how “spiritual” you look or act, but whether you love people enough to help them.
Key Points:
- We grow by helping others.
- We grow by serving people.
- We grow by giving financially.
- The greatest way to grow is by helping others.
Quote This:
Galatians 5:13 For you have been called to live in freedom, my brothers and sisters. But don’t use your freedom to satisfy your sinful nature. Instead, use your freedom to serve one another in love.
