S3E3 Thinking Right to Move Right: How the Gospel Shapes Christian Growth
How do Christians actually grow in maturity — and what does it look like for the gospel to shape our everyday lives? In this episode of Everyday Ministry, Lindsey Yeagley and Marty Sweeney continue their conversation about growing toward maturity in Christ by focusing on the means God uses to grow his people: his Word, prayer, and his people. A central theme of this episode is the difference between simply memorizing gospel truths and truly internalizing the gospel so that it shapes how we think, pray, obey, and help others grow. Lindsey and Marty explain why having a clear framework like Two Ways to Live is so valuable — not just as an evangelism tool, but as a formative structure that helps the gospel take root in our hearts and lives over time. They also reflect on why gospel clarity leads to gospel growth, how growth is often slow and uneven, and why helping others grow is a natural overflow of genuine maturity in Christ.
