| Summary: | Five dimensions of maturity are outlined and described: having a realistic view of oneself and others, accepting oneself and others, living in the present but having long range goals, having values and developing one's abilities and coping with daily living. A parallel description of biblical maturity is also made on these dimensions, but differences in content are noted. Psychological maturity is grounded in the image of God in man as created but fallen for both the Christian and the non-Christian, but the additional aspects of biblical maturity are grounded in the renewed image. |
