Chris Coursey shares a story of being a newlywed coming home from work one evening only to discover water dripping from the light on the ceiling in the kitchen. His quick investigation reveals his wife had taken a bath earlier in the day but the overflow valve had failed to do its job. The result was water leaking down the pipe, onto the ceiling, running through the electrical fixture and dripping onto the floor.

The water had been leaking for some period prior to the evidence now visible on the ceiling and the kitchen floor. Similarly, Chris likens this to many problems in the church today; what is visibly evident is only the result of something that has been wrong internally for some time.

In this 3 part series learn as Chris reveals how to assess maturity levels, determine deficiencies, and take steps to improve before disaster strikes. The more we grow, the more complex we become, so you could say maturity is increasing in complexity. Discover how these complexities become part of who you are so that you can reach your full potential.
