Checklist: 30 Key Areas in our Christian Walk



I found this check list in Missional Challenge. And it is useful resources to evaluate and see our beliefs, virtues and practices as we grow in the Lord.  Some of these 30 lists might simply "ticked off" and others worth spending time for evaluation and for asking God's grace to live out our faith.
