For God knew his people in advance, and he chose them to become like his Son, so that his Son would be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters.    -Romans 8:29 (NLT)

And the Lord—who is the Spirit—makes us more and more like him as we are changed into his glorious image.    -2 Corinthians 3:18b (NLT)

Transformation is not about TRYING

It’s about TRUSTING

STEP ONE: A LIFE OF WORSHIP

And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice—the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him.    -Romans 12:1 (NLT)


STEP TWO: A LIFE IN COMMUNITY

24 Let us think of ways to motivate one another to acts of love and good works. 25 And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is drawing near.    -Hebrews 10:24-25 (NLT)

STEP THREE: A LIFE ON MISSION

What matters most to me is to finish what God started: the job the Master Jesus gave me of letting everyone I meet know all about this incredibly extravagant generosity of God. -Acts 20:24 (Msg)
