Healthy Christian Growth

Those who have begun a new life in Christ need to grow to maturity; otherwise, they will be abnormal, sick, and spiritually invalid. As the author states in his introduction, this booklet briefly explains how God provides growth. It covers basic and necessary topics such as nutrition, exercise, and the spiritual environment; it points out obstacles to growth and concludes with a summary presented as a spiritual "check-up."

Well-rooted in the Scriptures, it is helpful for its clarity and simplicity. Some Christians get stuck in their growth, why? All Christians should seek spiritual maturity, but do they? Healthy Christian Growth offers biblical guidelines for growing toward maturity. It explains the pattern of God's work in the lives of His people and concludes with a brief spiritual check-up. Relevant to all stages of spiritual development, it provides a manual that will be especially useful for new believers. Sinclair B.
