One of the most dangerous things that Black people have done is subscribe to a set of beliefs based on their self-empowerment. The idea that Christianity is a White-man’s religion is a reflection you haven’t encountered the Holy Spirit and don’t know God for yourself.
Growth is the opposite of maintaining. So many people think they can grow while having a “maintenance” mindset.
You need to risk, push, and be bolder if you want to grow. Trying to hold back and just sustain, won’t work.
