GROW magazine is a free digital publication started by Sean Cavender and William Stewart in 2017. Each quarter an email is delivered to subscribers email inbox with links directed to that quarter’s articles on the web site. Our goal is to encourage and challenge our readers to increase their knowledge of God’s word and be focused on following God’s pattern for our lives. All of God’s people need to GROW, we need to become mature Christians. As individual Christians GROW, increasing in personal commitment and service to the Lord, there will be a benefit to the congregations we are associated with.
Each quarter, has 6 articles published in the following categories:
- EXPOSITORY ARTICLE – a detailed examination of a text, in context; at times dealing with those “difficult passages.” Real, hard-nosed Bible study.
- CHURCH ARTICLE – with a view toward congregational issues and needs.
- WORSHIP / DEVOTIONAL ARTICLE – focused on improving our worship and our understanding of worship, both individual and collective.
- APPLICATION ARTICLE – making application of God’s word for daily Christian living.
- EVANGELISM ARTICLE – why should we evangelize? how should we evangelize? Offering material to motivate us and help us share our faith with others.
- BEYOND THE BASICS — a look at things which will help us GROW beyond the fundamentals in our faith.
We hope that you will subscribe and come GROW with us.
Sincerely,
William J. Stewart, editor
Tragically, Sean was killed in a wreck on July 20, 2023. He leaves behind a wife and two children. Our hearts break for them, but we take comfort in the hope which is to those in Christ Jesus. GROW magazine was Sean’s idea. He wanted a partner, someone with a bit of tech experience, and so we worked together on it. I have continued and plan to continue with GROW for the foreseeable future in his honour and with the expectation that GROW magazine is accomplishing some good to God’s glory.
Here is a Tribute to Sean from our July 2023 issue.
