YOU ARE HERE

Begin Your Transformation

Welcome to the third phase of the Discipleship Pathway, Maturing in Christ. This means that you have been on this journey for a while. You have probably learned over the years to recognize God’s whisper in your heart and you regularly practice your faith in both worship and in service. The important thing to note is that we never stop maturing in our faith. This is a lifelong process, and there is still much to learn, even in our later years. This is also a time to pour into others and help them in their faith journey. Take stock of where you see the fruit of your spiritual growth and invest in the spaces that are still challenging to you.

Signs You Might Belong Here

Do I regularly sense God's presence and guidance in my life through prayer, scripture, or reflection?
Am I consistently living out my faith through service, giving, or leadership within the church or community?
Do I recognize areas of spiritual growth in myself, alongside areas where I still need to grow?
Am I beginning to feel called to mentor, disciple, or support others in their faith journey?
Do I understand that spiritual maturity is a lifelong process and feel committed to that growth?

MATURING IN CHRIST
PATHWAY

Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal,

but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.
