When we think of Christian maturity, we often hear about spiritual practices like Bible reading, prayer, and giving, but we don’t often hear about someone who has a heart for the lost. In this session, Dean Inserra teaching we are never more like Jesus than when we are seeking our lost friends, so having a missional heart is an essential mark of a growing disciple.
Every Christian—regardless of age, demographic, or background—is designed by God to grow in faith. But many of us don’t know what growth looks like. How do we even know we’re growing? In Marks of a Disciple, pastor Dean Inserra examines six measurements to help us see whether or not we’re developing spiritually. This is not a checklist or a punch card, but rather a group of traits distilled from Scripture that should be evident in the life of a follower of Jesus. As we pursue these markers, our faith can flourish the way God intended.
