The Church, made up of believers, is the body of Christ, with Jesus as its head. Our spiritual life and growth come from Him alone. Throughout your journey as a Christian, you may encounter people or movements promising unique ways to deepen your faith—through extreme practices, unusual rituals, or dramatic experiences. They might claim that without these, your faith is lacking.

However, these distractions often lead away from what truly matters: a steady, faithful walk with Christ. The Christian life is not about chasing trends but about consistent connection to Jesus. This means meeting Him daily in His Word, confessing sin, seeking His grace, and regularly gathering with fellow believers. It involves prayer, service, and staying rooted in Him.

Ephesians 4:15-16 reminds us that “we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of Him who is the head, that is, Christ.” As we remain connected to Him, Jesus will strengthen and sustain us, shaping our faith over a lifetime.
