I am in a class that requires me to write a 30 page biblical and systematic theology of Spiritual Formation. This class traces out the biblical theme of spiritual formation in both Old and New Testaments. With this class, I have an appreciation for the consistent manner in which biblical writers explain the process of spiritual growth by an appeal to natural growth processes in creation. I have read multiple sources but need current research. My outline is below.
