I often speak about spiritual growth and stagnation in my Bible studies. If you've attended Surrendered for a while, you've definitely heard it come up at least once. It is an issue that is always on my heart...probably because I feel that spiritual stagnation is always looming around every corner of my life, threatening to make me an ineffective Christian and minister. If I stop growing spiritually, then by default, I must be stagnating. I fear falling into that rut where I just keep maintaining without ever desiring to move forward in Christ, or where I have no new vision for what the Lord wants to do in Surrendered. It's no wonder why Peter's exhortation to pursue growth reverberates within me.
"But also for this very reason, giving all dilegence, add to your fath..." 2 Peter 1:5
