Spiritual growth is a good thing. But it requires change in us. Not only change in behavior but also attitudes and often beliefs. Sincere Christians see both. We want to remain firm in the faith yet grow, be transformed, sanctified. But what about when our beliefs hold us back?
One painful example in our history was church sanctioned slavery. Beliefs had to change. Or should I say interpretations and applications of beliefs.
We all must cope with life and we use our faith to help us. But have you ever had the experience of your faith not helping? As if reality does not fit with beliefs? Or beliefs clash with reality?
