What You Really Need To Grow Spiritually

Looking for an online church where you can grow in your Christian faith, hear practical Bible teaching, worship God, and be part of a worldwide Christian community? Welcome to NetChurch! In this week's online church message, What You Really Need to Grow Spiritually, we explore why Christian teaching is important—but teaching alone isn't always enough. Sometimes we need mature people of faith who will walk alongside us, encourage us, challenge us, mentor us, and help us put what we've learned into practice. In 1 Corinthians 4:15, Paul talks about the difference between having many instructors and having a father in the faith. What does a spiritual father look like? How do we choose the right people to guide us? And why is Christian mentorship and spiritual community so important for growing in our relationship with God? We'll also look at the story of Rehoboam in 1 Kings 12 and what happened when he rejected the wisdom of experienced elders and instead followed the advice of his friends. It's a powerful reminder that the people we allow to influence and advise us can have an enormous impact on the direction of our lives. Whether you're a new Christian, have followed Jesus for many years, are searching for an online church, or simply want to grow spiritually, this message will encourage you to think carefully about who is helping you on your journey of faith.
