Certainly part of “growth.” Not just comfortable with material gains and high status, but stretching into an uncertain wilderness of “growing.” But need a wide angle lens to view growth, not just in certain areas but in being a whole, well balanced and well integrated human being with both expanding complexity and maintained (and/or even INCREASED) harmonization.Growth Christianity (to me) would be religious organizations that eschewed gluttony and hoarding of funds. That quit glorifying preachers and supporting the ones that lived extravagant lifestyles.
I'd apply that to any religion...take away the dollars and see who the spirit moves to preach the message.
