How to Grow Spiritually (Day 4)

Here is a very quick summary of what Willow discovered to be the 5 catalysts to Spiritual Growth:
  1. Personal reading and reflecting on the bible is the most powerful catalyst for individual spiritual growth.  People need it, and they want it!
  2. Developing core christian beliefs is crucial for people in the early stages of growth (Beginning Christians and Growing Christians)
  3. Developing personal spiritual practices are the building blocks of a Christ-Centered life
  4. Serving is the most catalytic experience offered by churches.
  5. Spiritual community is vital and migrates from organized to organic.  That is, the most Christ-Centered Christians must be free to create their own opportunities and relationships.
