God works in our lives in many ways, but we do not always recognize either His presence or His divine providence in our circumstances. All Christians are called to mature. As the Apostle Paul said, we should grow beyond spiritual milk to the hearty meat of Christian life and faith. Throughout the history of Christianity, individuals and congregations have grown up in their salvation. The pathway is not new, but neither is it the same for everyone. This final book in the FCTS Series discusses how God uses the times, opportunities, and events common to nearly every life to lead us into a deeper and fuller relationship with Him in Jesus Christ. Individual spiritual formation requires a mature guide, and this book does not pretend to offer the personal counsel of a spiritual mentor. However, From Glory into Glory explores how God finds us, loves us, and grows us in the midst of the twists and turns of living. If we know to look for Christ in every situation and trust Him to bring forth good in us and for us, then we can live confident, hopeful, and humble lives. As Christians, we can meet every event of life in the certain knowledge that the Holy Spirit is with us and will never abandon us. This book offers insight into how we can expect the Spirit to work in our lives to lead us from infant belief to the fullness of life as a mature child of God.

Do you ever wonder how God sees our world and what He thinks of us today? Much has changed since Jesus' time, and many questions exist today that did not exist then. The Early Church recognized that Christians would face many challenges, the most enduring of which would be in the arena of ideas. In the fourth century, the Nicene Creed was adopted and became the intellectual framework for Christian life and faith. Across the centuries, the Creed is the basis of belief for Christians in throughout history, though many Christians today are unaware of this inherited treasure. The ancient Creed serves as a map to authentic Christian faith. Using the Creed as our trustworthy guide, Christians learn to worship God with the mind, changing our understanding and interpretation of all of life.
