We don’t like slow growth. We like fast paced, smooth sailing, and abundant growth. We like achievements and we like them NOW. Especially as Christians we are after a certain image to tell the world that we are perfectly put together on behalf of the gospel. But what if growth and sanctification was a slow, gentle process. A steady smoothing out of our edges and flaws being made new by a good, gracious God. Today’s conversation with Mary Marantz explores making room for slow growth.
