Synopsis
If someone were to approach me and ask, "Pastor, what is the most important thing the church is lacking today"? My response to the question would be "Maturity." Oftentimes when faced with a problem, as individuals or as a church, we respond ineffectively or inappropriately because we have not properly transitioned through the steps of maturity as set forth in the Scriptures to where we respond as spiritual adults rather than immature children. A child responds according to his or her personal wants and needs, whereas a mature adult responds from the perspective of the needs of other people. So, until we have properly transitioned through the steps of maturity, until we have moved from a place where we view situations only from a selfish perspective to where we view them from an unselfish one, focusing on the needs of other people, we are incapable of responding to other people as God would have us to respond. In the Scriptures, God sets forth four basic steps to maturity: 1) Childhood, 2) Sonship, 3) Husbandship, and 4) Fatherhood.
