Growth begins with surrender. In this message, Chris Ball draws from his experiences mentoring pastors to explore the challenges of ministry in a changing world. He introduces the concept of “divine addition”—the way God brings purpose and growth through seasons of change and self-discovery. Using John the Baptist’s words in John 3:22–30, he unpacks four truths: recognize what God has given, know your identity and limits, walk confidently in your calling, and let God increase as you humble yourself. Through honesty and encouragement, Chris reminds listeners that spiritual growth isn’t about striving for more, but allowing God to shape, refine, and expand His work within us.
