Kevin Myers, the founding pastor of 12Stone Church, a congregation of more than 30,000 active attenders near Atlanta, believes the reason we don't experience a transformed life is that we fail to grow up spiritually. We focus on developing physically, intellectually, emotionally, and financially, yet our faith remains immature and anemic.
In this powerful new book, Myers offers a deep yet simple roadmap to a grown-up faith through understanding the whole context of the Bible, developing spiritual intimacy with God, and gratefully embracing holy obedience.
As you understand the Bible and the big picture of God's story with humanity, you begin to find answers to life's most compelling questions. As you begin to understand God more, your longing and ability to experience spiritual intimacy with him increases, as does your desire to obey what God asks of you and your ability to follow through. This is the way to the bigger life, a life even better than you expected--or even dreamed possible.

"Kevin Myers is one of the finest communicators and spiritual leaders in the nation. Once you see the big-picture story of the Bible that he presents in Grown-Up Faith and you understand how God designed us to grow spiritually, you will never see the Bible, God, or yourself in the same way again. This book will take you on a journey of spiritual transformation that will change your life."
"In his powerful new book, Grown-Up Faith, Pastor Kevin Myers passionately describes God's design for a greater, more fulfilled life that so many of us desire. Pastor Kevin leads the reader to a deeper understanding of the Gospel, of God, and of His unfailing love, where we are able to move from being spiritually stuck, to embracing the true freedom God has for us."
"I've known Kevin for a decade. I've heard him teach this material, and more importantly, I've watched him live it. At Delta, we serve people and help them get where they want to go. That's what this book will do for you spiritually. It has helped re-energize and deepen my faith, and I know that's what it will do for you."
