In this powerful message, Pastor Tommy Hodges walks us through one of the most practical and transformative chapters in the New Testament, Romans 12. After spending eleven chapters explaining the mercy and grace of God, Paul shifts gears with the word “Therefore…” calling believers to live differently because of what Christ has already done for us.📖 Romans 12:1-8 reminds us that we are called to be living sacrifices — fully surrendered, set apart, and alive for God’s purpose. In this message, you’ll discover what it truly means to: • Surrender your life completely to God (Romans 12:1–2) • Serve faithfully using the unique gifts He’s given you (Romans 12:3–8) • Love others with genuine, Christlike love (Romans 12:9–21)Many of us find ourselves asking:👉 “What do I do now?”👉 “Where do I go from here?”👉 “What is my purpose or calling?”Pastor Tommy reminds us that if you’re still breathing, God has an assignment for your life. But to walk in that assignment, you must first come into alignment with His will. That begins by presenting your life as a living sacrifice, dying to self, living for Him, and saying no to your own agenda so you can say yes to His.“Present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, this is your reasonable act of worship.”-Romans 12:1Through this teaching, you’ll learn:- How to renew your mind through spiritual transformation- What it means to live crucified with Christ (Galatians 2:20)- How to find your God-given assignment by first walking in alignment- The difference between conforming to the world and being transformed by the SpiritWhether you’re searching for direction, desiring deeper intimacy with God, or wanting to discover your spiritual gifts, this message will inspire you to live a life fully devoted to Jesus.Scripture References:Romans 12:1–8Galatians 2:20 Key Themes:Living Sacrifice | Surrender | Transformation | Renewing Your Mind | Spiritual Gifts | Purpose | Alignment | Assignment | Romans 12Follow us!WEBSITE: https://www.compassiondickson.church/FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/compassiondicksonINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/compassionchurchdickson?igsh=eXp3Mm9ubG81aTQx&utm_source=qrSunday Extended Podcast: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRTsMFJ4TR5xa0PahwBjfzWK772IOi9G8&si=lsIu5iqaQwl79Jwj
