EP 165 – STAGES IN A REPLANT Pt.3 WATERING
So we’ve been in a series, The Stages of a Replant….
• Plowing—the work of God in preparing the ground through the preaching of the Gospel with the power and conviction of the Holy Spirit.
• Planting–the work of the Pastor and Leaders to sow the Gospel deeply into the softened ground of the Church body.
• Watering–the continual teaching and application of truth from God’s word that gives much needed refreshment so the seed can grow.
Today we talk about Growing…
Q: What are we referring to when we speak about Growing?:
• Growing–the fully developed seed of the Gospel springs up and is evident in the life of those inside the church. It’s marked by changed thinking and living and is evidence of God’s work in the lives of the people—spiritual growth.
