• W1563025561 abstract "It is often assumed that faith produces works, but this study suggests that the opposite is true one’s works bring one’s faith to maturity. The study hypothesized that those who volunteer with the Christian lay caregiving program, Stephen Ministries, would increase in faith maturity as a result of their experience. This is supported by self-perception theory, which proposes that beliefs and attitudes are shaped by one’s observations of one’s behaviors. Additionally, the helper-therapy principle, the notion that caregivers show benefits similar to those seen in their care-receivers, was relevant to the study. In past research, lay counseling clients have shown increases in religiosity, so their caregivers should be expected to have similar results. The Faith Maturity Scale (FMS), a self-report measure of religiosity, was administered to Stephen Ministers during training, and then again after five months of caregiving. The FMS yields scores for vertical faith maturity (FMS-V), horizontal faith maturity (FMS-H), and global faith maturity (FMS-T). FMS-V represents a person’s personal relationship with God. FMS-H is regarding a person’s views on suffering and how he or she, as a Christian, should respond to the needs of others. FMS-T is a composite score derived from both FMS-V and FMS-H. ThirtySelf-Perception and Faith Maturity iv four Stephen Ministers from 15 different Protestant churches of various denominations participated in both the pre-test and post-test. The sample was divided in half to create a High Group (those with at least 10 meetings with a care-receiver) and a Low Group (those with fewer than 10 meetings). No significant differences were found between the High Group and Low Group for any measure of faith maturity. However, the entire sample yielded significant increases across time for both FMS-H and FMS-T. No significant increases were found for FMS-V. Limitations of the study, ideas for future research, and implications for Stephen Ministries are discussed. Self-Perception and Faith Maturity v Table of" @default.
