ETS ACADEMY · LESSON 6

Advancing in My Faith

Teaching points

  • Faith is practiced in ordinary choices and relationships. Growth involves hearing Scripture, responding in obedience, and learning with others over time.
  • Read the assigned pages in the original workbook. Use the Scripture references to examine the teaching before answering the reflection and knowledge check.

Read in Scripture

  • James 1:22–25
  • 2 Peter 3:18

Reflect

  • Where is there a gap between what you understand and what you practice?
  • What does the passage teach, and what is one question you want to explore with a mentor?

Put it into practice

  • Choose one small act of obedience and a realistic time to carry it out.
