Church Values: Spiritual Transformation

In 1984 and 1985 the toy of the year was Voltron and it was desired by every little boy I knew, including myself.  On Christmas Eve I opened a present and there it was before me.  The greatest toy ever created.  How could a toy that transformed five different cats into one giant robot not be the greatest?  As the years went by I began to collect new toys aptly named Transformers.  What do these toys do?  They transform from one thing into something completely different.

Over the past two weeks we have wrestled with and explored what God’s Word has to say about two of our values as a church: Honoring God and Reaching the Lost.  This week we will look at what God has to say about spiritual transformation.  And as the words describe, how is the disciple of Jesus Christ changed from one form into another form?  How does the Word of God describe this transformation?  What is it importance of knowing what this transformation looks like?  How does this transformation happen?  These are the questions that we will wrestle with this week.

Join us at First Baptist as we strive to understand God’s call for us to be spiritually transformed as His disciples and what this means for us as a whole as God’s people in this place.
