How do you change? How does someone become more like Christ?

This question is key to understanding the journey of the disciple as we move from fear to love.

The first step in changing, in becoming more like Jesus, is seeing God correctly. The primary way we see Jesus interacting with God, is as a Father. Even further, there are two specific ways we get fathered by God that produce lasting change in us: His partnership and His correction.

God is a good dad who has always been interested in partnering with you to see heaven come to earth. When you see the partnership He desires, you will begin to change out of the love He has for you. This is a powerful motivation.

God is also interested in you bearing fruit that will last. He is a Father Gardener and he walks through the garden of your life and looks for things with eternal value. He cuts, or prunes, anything that isn’t producing eternally valuable fruit. This is how He shows us that we are His children and demonstrates His jealous love for us. It’s for our flourishing and for His glory.
