Grace Notes—Reflections on Maturing in Christ

Release Date: March 21, 2026

This book is about the process of maturing in Christ—spiritual maturation. Others call this process sanctification or the way to holiness. Followers of Jesus are on a journey to become more like Jesus, thus becoming more mature in Christ. It is my hope that this book will be a helpful and encouraging resource for you on the journey of spiritual maturation. 

This book speaks to who we are as followers of Jesus—our spiritual identity as connected to being, knowing, and doing. It speaks to both the "why" and the "how" of spiritual transformation. Who we are in Christ is a response to God's grace as shown through Jesus and the Holy Spirit. Thus, the title is—Grace Notes: Reflections on Maturing in Christ.

This book attempts to answer:

•   Whose are we?

•   Who are we in Jesus?

•   Why do we do what we do?

•   How do we think theologically about Christian spirituality?

•   How do we become spiritual people?

•   What is the process of spiritual maturation?

•   How do we allow the Holy Spirit to shape us into the image of Jesus?
