EFESO 2:19-20

Pablo nos insta a no conformarnos a este siglo, sino a transformarnos mediante la renovación de nuestro entendimiento para conocer la voluntad de Dios. La RAE define "conformar" como ajustar, dar forma o convenir con otra persona. En griego, "susjematidzo" significa moldear y personalmente, prefiero esta definición, ya que estamos familiarizados con los moldes y Dios quiere que adquiramos el molde de Su Hijo Jesucristo.

In this five-day reading plan, Dr. Tony Evans will journey with you through the first section of Hebrews (1:1—3:6) and discuss Jesus: The Superior Person. Hebrews was written to encourage believers to never give up. So, if you have ever faced discouragement in your journey of faith, then this is the book you should study to find encouragement and hope to finish the race of faith well.

For some, Christmas time can be full of grief, tragedy, hurt, and division. Yet Christmas celebrates that God became a human and stepped right into the middle of our hurting, angry, chaotic world to bring us peace—peace among people and, even more importantly, peace with God. Join us this Advent season in looking at the peace brought by Christ.

As New York pastor Rich Villodas defines it, a deeply formed life is a life marked by integration, intersection, intertwining, and interweaving, holding together multiple layers of spiritual formation. This kind of life calls us to be people who cultivate lives with God in prayer, move toward reconciliation, work for justice, have healthy inner lives, and see our bodies and sexuality as gifts to steward.
