Spiritual maturity, in the Christian understanding, is the process of growing and developing in faith, wisdom, and character in accordance with the teachings of Jesus Christ. It involves deepening one’s relationship with God, seeking to live a life that reflects the character of Christ, and bearing spiritual fruit such as love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23). It also involves a commitment to ongoing learning, prayer, worship, serving others, and engaging in spiritual disciplines to deepen one’s understanding and relationship with God.
