Episode #272: A Conversation about Transformation

In this week's episode, Aaron and Kevin discuss what it looks like to live a transformed Christian life.
When you think about Christianity, does it seem like a list of "dos and don'ts"? Maybe you've heard that there are certain standards Christians should live by, but either you don't want to, or you've tried and it seems impossible.
What does it mean when the Apostle Paul says in Romans 12, "do not be conformed to the world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind"?
You'll notice that that it says "be transformed" not "transform yourself," which means that the transformation process is something that God accomplishes in your life, not something that you can do for God.
As we've been walking through Romans, you've heard over and over again about God's work in our lives by his grace alone. Therefore, even the transformed Christian life comes to us not by what we do, but by what God has done and is doing in and through us.
We hope you enjoy this conversation!
