This weekend in the services we will be focusing upon the invitation to grow in our spiritual lives. As I'm pondering that I'm faced with the question, "When do we tell people that they have learned enough about God?" I don't ever remember saying anything like that in my preaching or teaching, in fact just the opposite, but it seems like there are many people who have gotten to the point where they think they know enough. So I'm having to ask why the church by and large has allowed people to give up becoming more Christ like?
I don't know as if I will have an answer by Sunday but I at least hope that I'll be able to offer a wake-up call to some folks to begin thinking again about what their role is in growing up into the likeness of Christ. I'll try to come back next week and share anything that we learn together in the midst of this.
