Title: Keys to Spiritual Growth (2)
Series: Growing Up
Author: Jim Perdue
Text: 2 Peter 3:18?
Last week, we began a short sermon series on spiritual growth. We're talking about what it means to grow into spiritual maturity. It's a series I'm calling, Growing Up. And this series will lead us to an important Sunday called Grow Sunday.
Our church exists to help people find and follow Jesus. That's why we're here. We do that by obeying the Great Commission to make disciples of all nations for God's glory. And if our job is to make disciples, we've defined a disciple with three words: connect, grow, and serve.
You connect by building deep and lasting relationships and participating faithfully in worship. You grow by developing spiritual depth in your relationship with Jesus and others as you faithfully participate in Life Groups, D-Groups, and Bible Studies. Then, you serve by engaging in ministry within the church and in mission beyond the church.
This sermon series is going to focus on the second word in our disciple-making pathway: grow. I'm going to ask you to do something very specific, measurable, and practical. I want you to get involved in a Life Group. We have selected Sunday, September 8th, as Grow Sunday. Here's the goal: I want every person in a Life Group on that day. Now, you'll hear more about this in the coming days and weeks but I want you to go ahead and circle that date on your calendar. Make your plans to be a part of a Life Group that day.
Today, we're in 2 Peter 3:18 as we think about the sermon subject, Keys for Spiritual Growth. Here, Peter ends his second letter with some encouragement and a challenge to followers of Jesus. READ TEXT - PRAY
