“As congregations, we grow in godliness not by hearing one sermon but by hearing a thousand.”
“We need to believe that God really does work and that he really does work over time. Too often we overestimate the growth we can gain in a week, but underestimate the growth we can gain in a year.” - Challies
I think those who have a “revivalistic” mentality cannot get this. Everyone wants a quick fix, a spiritual secret. In reality, there are MANY spiritual “secrets.”
