maturity

I read today in the book "Viral Churches" that you know when a church is spiritually mature when it reproduces itself. I believe that this is the same for us as believers. We are not truly spiritually mature if we are not able to reproduce disciples. Jesus Himself gave us a very clear command when He said, "Go into all the world and make disciples." The question is, are we? Am I? Are you?

getting older should = maturity

It's funny the older I get, how many of the things I value change too. When I was sixteen, it was all about my 15 inch subwoofers that cost almost as much as my truck. Now its all about, what kind of husband and dad am I being? I've had to give up several things I used to love to do, in order to do the things that are now more highly valued. But really, that is how it should be. We continue to grow and change while walking through different seasons of life. We must continually adapt in order to keep those things that are important at the forefront of life. What is truly important to you? Do you need to shuffle a few priorities in your life?
As for the pic.......I just thought it was cool.
