Spiritual growth is the process of becoming more mature in one’s relationship with Jesus Christ. Someone who is growing spiritually will become more and more like Christ. The spiritually mature will be able to “distinguish good from evil” (Hebrews 5:14). Spiritual growth begins the moment a person comes to faith in Christ and should continue until the end of ones life.

It is God’s will that we grow to be more like Jesus. We also have the promise that the Lord Himself will oversee our growth and bring us to maturity. “He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus” (Philippians 1:6 NIV).

“Finally, brothers, rejoice. Aim for restoration, comfort one another, agree with one another, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you” (2 Corinthians 13:11).
