Coming Up:
Aaron shares plans to bring new voices to the podcast, including his wife Ashley, with topics ranging from marriage to spiritual growth.

In this week’s episode, Aaron and Marshall dive into the latter part of Hebrews 5, discussing what it means to grow in spiritual maturity and move beyond the basics of faith. Drawing parallels between physical growth—from drinking milk to eating solid food—and spiritual growth, they challenge listeners to assess their walk with Christ and take actionable steps toward maturity.

Key Topics Discussed:

• Born Again and Starting as Spiritual Babies: The importance of being reborn spiritually and beginning the faith journey with a hunger to know Christ.
• From Milk to Solid Food: Just as we outgrow physical training wheels, Christians must outgrow spiritual immaturity and delve deeper into God’s word.
• The Risk of Stagnation: A warning against staying in a superficial faith and the dangers of becoming dull in hearing and understanding God's word.
• Breaking Generational Curses: Marshall shares his personal journey of confronting family patterns and striving to leave a godly legacy for his future child.
• Be Doers of the Word: Faith must be accompanied by action. Drawing from examples like the feeding of the 5,000, the episode encourages listeners to take steps of faith and trust God to bless their efforts.

Memorable Quotes:

• “You can’t have training wheels your whole life, both literally and spiritually.”
• “Faith without action is dead. You’ve got to be persistent in progressing to the solid food of God’s word.”
• “If we only focus on superficial Christianity, we risk falling away due to immaturity in our faith.”
