Evidence of Our Spiritual Growth

Have you ever thought, “Am I spiritually growing, and if so, is there evidence of my spiritual growth?”  I know I’ve had those thoughts run through my mind from time to time.  Recently I was listening to pastor Charles Stanley and he did a sermon exactly on this.  The sermon was entitled, “Evidence of Our Spiritual Growth” which was apart of his Growth series.  If you have time, I recommend watching the 30-minute video, but below I outlined Charles’ 15 signs you are growing in your faith.
