Sacrifice for Success: The Body and Spiritual Transformation
Some religious people spiritualize everything. The transformation they seek involves escaping all the trappings of our bodies in pursuit of a purely spiritual realm. But this is contrary to the teachings of the Bible where God creates our bodies, calls them good, and shows us that life in a body is constitutive of what it means to be a human being. There is no experience of God, no salvation, no transformation for human beings that's not mediated through a physical body. In this message, Pastor Mark walks us through Romans 12:1-8 to explain how real transformation and spiritual growth requires the full participation of our bodies. God calls us to be all in, not only in mind and spirit, but also in body!
