A Life of Sacrifice with Guest Dave Mohr
Romans 12:1-2
What does it look like to live a sacrificial kind of life? Really? According to God’s word, true sacrifice involves a lot more than the things we do on the outside, like our words or even our actions. It’s bigger than that, but more accurately it’s deeper than that. This weekend we will be looking at the roots of where a transformed life both comes from, and where it leads.
Before becoming the executive minister for the BCBA, Dave served as the pastor of an NAB church in Calgary, Alberta. Having been married since 1991, he and his wife, Kim, have three adult children. Though he has been geographically displaced fan for some time, Dave is a life-long Edmonton Oilers fan.
For reflection & discussion:
Paul starts verse 1 by saying, “In view of God’s mercy...” What does he mean by that phrase? Can you think of some practical applications of God’s mercy to you?
If the ancient world thought of sacrifice as religious behaviour, how did Paul approach the idea of sacrifice?
What does a life of sacrifice begin with (or, flow out of)?
What are some ways followers of Jesus might show mercy? How is God honoured when we show mercy to others?
If being a living sacrifice is an everyday act of worship, how should I approach my day? Is that challenging or easy?
What are some of the dangers of defining ourselves by anything other than how Jesus defines us?
If transformation always starts on the inside, in your experience how does it show up on the outside?
What kind of posture is God calling us to? What steps do I need to take to have that posture this week?
