Popular Pastors Whose Spiritual Fathers Are Not Known

The importance of spiritual fathers in Christianity cannot be over-emphasized, as much of the spiritual growth and development of a Christian depends on it. Therefore, the same way a child receives guidance, instructions, and covering from his earthly father, so it is with the Christian life, where one receives these same things from one’s spiritual father after one gets born again.

However, people have been found at some point asking this question: ‘Must I have a spiritual father to do well in my Christian life?’ The answer to that question is YES, because God has not called anyone in isolation, and one must go through a process of discipleship before one amounts to maturity in the faith.
