How Do We Grow Up?

Understanding the Way God Matures People Like Us

Galatians 2:20

Have you looked at a picture of yourself as a child lately? Whether that photo is in high definition on a device in your hand or tucked away in a photo album in fading black and white, it's amazing to look at ourselves as we once were. 

How did you manage to grow up? Who and what helped you through the scrapes of childhood, hiccups of puberty or, if you're far enough along, the crises of mid-life? And consider your spiritual growth: what has that been like? Who has helped - or hindered - you? And what about the celebrations and laments of growing up in fellowship with others in the life of a church family? 

Today, we embark on a journey of discovering how God develops maturity in us. It's a glorious and bumpy adventure - come along for the ride!
