 Spiritual Growth occurs when a person makes a deliberate choice to be open and available to growth, made possible through God's Holy Spirit. It takes faith to make this choice. The Bible, God's Word, says that "faith comes by hearing, and by hearing the Word of God." (Romans 10:17). Thus, we need to hear and to read God's word. It is the source of all wisdom and the foundation for our personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Below you'll find a variety of Bible studies for adults to help you to study God's word, in the company of others who are also seeking spiritual growth.
