Episode 4: What Is Stunting Your Growth?
What if the greatest obstacle to your spiritual growth isn’t a lack of knowledge—but what you refuse to lay down?
In Episode 4 of Along the Narrow Road, Leesa, Kim, Amanda, and Karen open 1 Peter 2:1–3, where Peter identifies five things that quietly hinder growth: malice, deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and evil speaking. These aren’t always obvious. They can appear as hidden resentment, comparison, masked faith, unkind thoughts, or conversations we excuse as “just venting.”
The ladies discuss discernment, receiving correction, taking thoughts captive, praying for those who have hurt us, and the difference between experiencing a spiritual moment and allowing Yah to genuinely transform our lives.
Spiritual maturity is not measured by how much Scripture we can consume or how convincing our faith appears. It is revealed by what we surrender, what we crave, and whether obedience changes how we think, speak, respond, and love.
This honest and challenging conversation asks each of us to examine our hearts: What is stunting your growth—and are you willing to lay it aside so you can grow closer to Yahushua?
