Growing In Our Faith

Growing In Our Faith Sermon Illustration

Babies are not born speaking, walking, or able to do much of anything for themselves. They grow and learn by using their senses. Research shows that “one-hour-olds can distinguish their mother’s voice from another person’s” (Alex Beard, “How Babies Learn—And Why Robots Can’t Compete,” The Guardian, April 3, 2018, https://www.theguardian.com/news/2018/apr/03/how-babies-learn-and-why-robots-cant-compete). When we come to Christ, we are infants in our spiritual life. By watching, listening, and spending focused time with God, we too learn how to recognize his voice and walk in his ways.
