As believers progress in their walk with God, they move into a stage of spiritual maturity.

As believers continue to mature, they move into a stage of discipleship, where they take responsibility for their own growth and seek to mentor others.

At this stage, individuals understand the importance of accountability, community, and spiritual disciplines, such as fasting, meditation, and evangelism.
