Transformed Into Living Sacrifices

Justin Detmers

Romans 12:1-8

Since serving the body of Christ is commanded, important, and one of the ways God transforms us, how are you doing at recognizing and using your gifts to serve the church? Pastor Justin Detmers reminds us that spiritual transformation is not just God honoring, it is attainable and possible through God’s grace.

Why do you think that some Christians seem to never deeply change for the better and grow to be more like Christ?

Read Romans 12:1. What reason does Paul give for us to ‘present our bodies as a living sacrifices’ to God? Is this your motivation for spiritual growth?

In the first part of Romans 12:2, Paul says to “not be conformed to this age”. What are some ways ‘this age’ can deform our thinking and pull our hearts away from Christ?

In the second part of Romans 12:2, Paul says we become transformed as we renew our minds. What are some specific areas of your worldview or thought life that need to be renewed and reshaped by God’s grace and truth?

In Romans 12:4-8, Paul explains how each of us is gifted and that we are connected to each other. Since serving the body of Christ is commanded, important, and one of the ways God transforms us, how are you doing at recognizing and using your gifts to serve the church? Are there action steps you need to take to exercise your faith?
