How Do I Grow As A Christian?

When you become a Christian, you are like a newborn baby. Just as a baby needs nourishment to grow, you need to be fed spiritually to grow in your Christian walk and to begin to see a difference in your life. 1 Peter 2:2,3 says,

"As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that you may grow thereby, if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is gracious."

1. Tell someone about your decision. This will help you to get started in your Christian walk.

2. Read the Bible. The Bible is the Word of God and in the Holy Scriptures we are told how to live.

3. Pray. Some reasons to pray are to praise and thank God, to repent of your sins, to avoid temptation, to pray for others, and to pray for your own needs.

4. Fellowship with others who have also placed their faith in Jesus. Attending church is the best way to meet and fellowship with other believers. You are always welcome at Indian Hill Baptist Church!

5. Be baptized. Baptism is not what saves you, but it's an outward sign of your faith. A public profession of this faith shows that you are not ashamed of the gospel of Christ.

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge Him, and he shall direct your paths."

~ Proverbs 3:5,6
