Like physical growth, spiritual growth is not something that happens instantly; it happens gradually. In 1 Peter 2, the Apostle Peter tells believers that they must put aside the food of the world and allow God’s Word to satisfy their souls.
Spiritual growth happens over time as we consistently desire the pure milk of God’s Word. Peter lays out the process of moving from spiritual infancy to maturity by laying aside malice, deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and all evil speaking. Your “spiritual diet” affects your faith, which means that what you feed your soul will either transform you or destroy you.
If you want to experience spiritual growth, you must nurture your soul. Join Pastor Phil Hopper to discover practical steps from 1 Peter 2 to deepen your relationship with God, experience transformation, and live out your faith daily.
