An Elder Hudson said, "If you are not BORN AGAIN it will be difficult for you to experience SPIRITUAL GROWTH. Growth can only come after Birth and it depends on what you are fed and not on what church you attend. So make sure you have the right Spiritual diet to ensure effective Spiritual Growth. Grow in grace and the knowledge of the Lord and savior Jesus Christ."
It took some urging within me, and a tad bit of courage to say what I knew about spiritual growth. I couldn't be angry at his projection into the world. I could be truthful, and I was.

Spiritual growth is not contingent upon being 'born again', but it is re-birth. The enormous spiritual growth witnessed and experienced in the eras, epochs and times past are testimony to that. In fact the rise of Christianity rose up in a historical period known as the Axial Period. It was a phenomenon unparalleled. All of the major religions within this period of a few hundred years arose to creative and spiritual zeniths at the same time!
What is important is the freed sense of being in relationship with the living elements of Life, and the Creator, who created them. There are many places upon the Earth, our Mother to connect with what is necessary to grow in one's spirit, and many traditions to attain that goal. - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 6.21.14
