Thoughts to Consider

  • Worship: Worship requires mind renewal.
  • Evangelism: How might breaking this world’s patter change our witness?
  • Discipleship: Teaching others to conform no longer, but be transformed and renewed!
  • “The Word of God, by the Spirit of God, in the child of God, conforming him to the image of the Son of God.”

32 For God has consigned all to disobedience, that he may have mercy on all.

33 Oh, the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments and how inscrutable his ways!

34   “For who has known the mind of the Lord,
    or who has been his counselor?”
35   “Or who has given a gift to him
    that he might be repaid?”

36 For from him and through him and to him are all things. To him be glory forever. Amen.

12 I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

— Romans 11:32-12:2

Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old self with its practices 10 and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator.

— Colossians 3:9-10
