Using a Word of the Year for Growth

How to Grow in the Word of God in 2022

It is important to remember that spiritual growth is not about what you do but about who you are. Your spiritual growth depends on your relationship with Jesus Christ. It is important to be in the Word of God every day and to spend time with Him in prayer.

There are many ways to grow in the Word of God. You can read it daily, memorize verses, or study it with others. But one of the most important things you can do to grow in your faith is praying for others.

Prayer changes everything! It changes us and our circumstances because God answers prayer! And when we pray for others, we are actually praying for ourselves because all people are connected in Christ Jesus (1 Timothy 2:1-4).

Join our today’s conversation with me, Lisa, and my friends Charlotte, and Melinda, as we talk about the importance of choosing words to help you grow throughout the year. We will give you tips on how to do your life’s assessment in order to select words that resonate with the will of God.

About the Podcast

Faith with Friends
Christian Podcast for Women who want spiritual growth and deepen their walk with God.
Friends with Faith is all about progress not perfection. We are a circle of friends that desire to grow in our walk with Jesus. Here, we get together to think a little more about faith & love. Whether you’re a newcomer, or a lifelong Christian, you’ll hear thought provoking & stimulating conversation about all things faith: from growing your personal relationships, to your own spiritual growth and connection with God. We are walking out and working out our faith together in community. We share each others burdens, carrying them to the cross. We celebrate each other, building each other up for the good works God has prepared. If you struggle to be faithful in prayer and reading the Bible then we believe this is the podcast that will help you apply God's Word to everyday tasks and trials. We share what works for us and encourage you as we learn and grow together. We want to learn how to love God and others better. Welcome to our circle. Thanks for listening in!
