Episode 12 - Spiritual Adulthood: Trading Religious Duty for Authentic Love
We explore the complex motivations behind Christian living and whether believers are driven by love for God or simply trying to save themselves.
• Spiritual maturity requires moving beyond the idea that salvation is the end goal rather than the starting point
• Self-examination is essential but challenging, requiring honesty about our spiritual condition
• Our motivation for Christian living should transition from obligation to genuine love for God
• When we truly love Jesus, we naturally want to spend time with Him and make Him central in our lives
• Running toward God with our struggles rather than hiding demonstrates spiritual maturity
• Vulnerability with God and within a church community helps us address our hurts, habits, and hangups
We meet at Rockdale Intermediate School with fellowship and coffee at 10:00 AM and service at 10:30 AM. Iced coffee returns on Mother's Day! Text us with questions or prayer requests through your podcast app.
