Life Transformation

Imagine a Church

Life Transformation

Romans 12:1-2 Acts 4:32-35

 

In a Word: TRANSFORMATION.

Imagine a church in which family-lives revolve around the Kingdom of God; where people make career choices based upon church-connectedness, where marriages reflect Christ and the Church; where parents are the powerful spiritual influence in their children; and where children grow radically in grace and the likeness of Jesus Christ.

What does it Take? (Romans 12:1-2)

(1) I GIVE UP

 “give your bodies to God”. “Let them be a living and holy sacrifice”…

(2) I GIVE IN

“This is truly the way to worship Him.” “This is your spiritual service.”

(3) I GIVE TO

2 Corinthians 6:17, “Therefore, Come out from them and be separate, says the Lord.”
 

1Peter 2:9, “But you are not like that, for you are a chosen people. You are royal priests, a holy nation, God’s very own possession. As a result, you can show others the goodness of God, for He called you out of the darkness into his wonderful light.”

 

Key Thought: Do not IMITATE; let God RECREATE.

 

What Does it Look Like? (Acts 4:32-35)

  • They were united
  • They shared
  • They testified
  • They sell/bring/give
  • They were ALL IN
  • They went ALL OUT

 

“He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose.” - Jim Elliot

 Sacrifice—giving up something you love for something you love more.

 Final Thought: God’s vision for the church is total life transformation and once that vision captures our hearts, He changes everything. And then people will see the goodness of God.

Series Information

This series is a vision declaration to the church of where we are headed; by the grace and goodness of God. We exist so every Man, Woman and Child, might have the opportunity to Know Christ, Grow in Christ, and Go as the body of Christ. What does that mean? How is God calling us to fulfill that calling? This series is the result of a yearlong effort with the leadership team to understand our vision. We will unpack the key components of the vision God has given us.
