A Teachable Spirit (2019)
Individual TopicsSteve Gregg
In "A Teachable Spirit", Steve Gregg stresses the importance of having a humble and receptive attitude to growth as a Christian. He emphasizes that character, love, holiness, and an increasing understanding of God are all indicators of Christian growth, and that a willingness to receive instruction and correction is key to achieving such growth. Furthermore, he highlights the importance of discernment and a love of truth, which encourage receptivity without gullibility. Ultimately, Gregg argues that those who have a teachable spirit will mature in wisdom and grace, while those who stubbornly refuse to learn will suffer spiritual consequences.
