What is wrong in the life of the sinning believer needs to be mended or set straight with a view to spiritual growth and Christlike character . Near the front sat Bud Perkins and Teddy Watson , athletic-looking young fellows , clear-eyed and clean-skinned , just coming into their manhood , and there was a responsiveness in the boys ' faces that made the minister address his appeal directly to them as he set before them the two ways , asking them to choose the higher , the way of loving service and Christlike endeavour . Were I to live my life over again I would certainly be a minister , not because I am blind to the faults of the churches , but in part because I see so many faults , and because the adequacy , intelligence , and Christlike character of our churches are so desperately important . Padre Pio ’ s magnificent example in applying these six steps in attaining rightmindedness and Christlike conduct completely eradicates all vestiges of hypocrisy — The evil that destroys families , societies and nations . That kind of nourishment stimulates the growth of spiritual muscle and Christlike character .
