Lean In: Week Four

Romans 12 raises the bar for followers of Jesus. After 11 chapters of God's heart for his Creation and the invitation to experience a life-changing relationship through Jesus... "In view of God's Mercy...", we get real about following the way of Jesus. Quickly we discover, we were made for more than we often settle for. Romans 12:9-10

Romans 12:11-13 If we really love, we will move from selfish to selfless lives in which we really help others, especially those in need. In Romans 12:11-13, Paul instructs us to “never be lazy” but instead to “work hard and serve ... enthusiastically,” to “practice hospitality” and that “when God’s people are in need, be ready to help them.” What might that look like for us today? How would it change the reputation Christians have if we practiced it? How might loving our neighbors in this way change their lives?
