“Daily Devotions. Bible Reading. In my quiet time this morning.”

“Accountability partner. Discipleship. Spiritual growth.”

“Trying to give it to God. Praying about it. Seeking the Lord’s will.”

If you have been around Church for a very long time, you know the right language to use, which will lead others to believe you are a committed Christian. Drop a few well-timed words and phrases into a conversation, and people will automatically assume you have a vibrant faith.

It is easy to fool other people about your level of spiritual maturity. The trouble comes when you start believing your own lies. Suddenly, the right language became a real problem.
