Thabiti Anyabwile, What is a Healthy Church Member?:
…it may be the case that the most chronic problem facing churches and Christians is the lack of consistent spiritual growth and progress in discipleship.
…we must clarify what growth is and is not. Ours is a superficial culture that lays emphasis on the outward signs and neglects the inward reality. We’re far too vulnerable to settling for being thought of as mature rather than actually being mature.
