“Spiritual growth may be defined as that transformational process by which we allow the in-dwelling Christ to increasingly express Himself in and through us, resulting in a greater capacity on our part to bring God greater glory and experience His greater good for ourselves.” (source)
“Spiritual growth is more of Christ being expressed in my life through less of me” (source)
“so glorifying God means that we draw attention to Him and promote Him as worthy of all praise and adoration” (source)
“The word glory means to be heavy or weighty, and it came to refer to something or someone of great worth.” (source)
“Grace is all that God is free to do for you based on the work of Jesus Christ on your behalf.” (source)
