Growing in Christ cover

This insightful book outlines essential conditions for spiritual growth, guiding readers through their journey in Growing in Christ.

In Growing in Christ, Paul Wells explores the profound journey of spiritual growth in relation to Jesus Christ. He outlines five essential conditions that nurture this growth, starting with the importance of being planted in the right environment for spiritual life to flourish. This foundational step is crucial for anyone seeking to deepen their relationship with Christ and understand the transformative power of faith.

Wells emphasizes the necessity of rooting oneself in the biblical teachings of God's word. This grounding not only provides stability but also fosters a deeper understanding of spiritual truths. As readers progress through the book, they will discover how to grow up to a place of stability in their faith, achieving maturity and vitality through the work of the Holy Spirit.

The journey does not end with maturity; it culminates in fruitfulness, which is the ultimate outcome of growing into Christ. Each chapter concludes with thought-provoking discussion questions, encouraging readers to reflect on their personal growth and application of the teachings. Growing in Christ serves as a valuable guide for anyone wishing to cultivate a deeper, more fruitful relationship with their faith and God.

Reading this book is to benefit from Paul Wells’ own deep rootedness in the Scriptures. In a world calling us to question any truth outside ourselves, we need this urgent and encouraging reminder of our true calling to grow in the grace and knowledge of the Lord Jesus.

Growing in Christ is a biblical and theological feast that encourages readers to hunger for more.  Regardless of where you may be on your Christian journey, this personal, practical and enjoyable guide offers rich nourishment for the soul.  I will return often to Paul Wells’ simple but profound study on Christian growth.

Authored by a lifelong defender of biblical truth, this book provides a healthy corrective for any who imagine that spiritual growth can bypass robust theology.
