Beginner’s Guide To Growing In Your Faith

Here’s a guide to get you started in growing in your Catholic Faith! Every one of these steps are needed to grow as a faithful Catholic, and this is a great starting point for any Catholic willing to go deeper in their Faith.

Prayer

Prayer is absolutely necessary in the spiritual life. It’s necessary for a good relationship with Jesus Christ. We need to talk to God. To start, pray 15 minutes in the morning and evening.

Sacraments

There are seven sacraments, and every one of them helps us grow spiritually. Go to Confession once a month, go to Mass every Sunday and Feast Day.

Virtue

Virtue is needed to grow spiritually and to avoid sinfulness. Strive to grow in virtues, especially Faith, Hope, and Charity. Humility is the foundation of all virtues, so give special attention to this virtue.

Trust

Learn to trust God completely. He looks out for us every second of every day. His plan is always better than what we can come up with. Build your trust in God.

Learn

The Catholic Church is so full of information. There is always something new to learn, which will help you appreciate your Faith more and help you navigate this tricky world. Read, watch videos, listen to podcasts. Also read your Bible.
