pursue the Christ-like Character essential to fulfill our Commission to change our

lives and world for Him.

Romans 12:1

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 12:2

For by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith that God has assigned.

Romans 12:3

For as in one body we have many members, and the members do not all have the same function,

Romans 12:4

Romans 12:6

if service, in our serving; the one who teaches, in his teaching;

Romans 12:7

the one who exhorts, in his exhortation; the one who contributes, in generosity; the one who leads, with zeal; the one who does acts of mercy, with cheerfulness.
