The Bible exhorts us to present our bodies as living sacrifices, holy and acceptable to God. But as one Christian writer observes, "The problem with a living sacrifice is thati it keeps crawling off the altar." How can we learn to lay aside our sinful, self-centered desires and yield ourselves fully to the Lord? To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/791/29?v=20251111
It's easy to curate an image—successful, spiritual, “together.” But the charade ends where it matters most: before God, who sees the heart. In today's episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef points to Paul's sobering reminder in 1 Corinthians: every believer will one day stand before the Lord and have their works tested. This isn't about salvation—Christ settled that at the cross, purchasing our righteousness by His blood. This is about eternal rewards and the reality that motives matter. Dr. Youssef explains the difference between building with: gold, silver, and precious stones—faithful obedience offered to Jesus with pure motives, and straw—doing the right things for the wrong reasons, seeking self-glory instead of Christ's glory. As you listen, ask yourself: Am I building for the glory of Jesus—or for something else? This devotional calls you to surrender your time, talents, and resources fully to the One who is worthy—so your life brings extravagant honor to Christ. Today's MY Devotional has been provided by Leading The Way. The voice you hear on the MY Devotional podcast is digitally generated with Dr. Youssef's permission. If today's devotional stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don't have to walk through it alone.
God calls His people to complete devotion, not just part-time worship. Just as the Israelites were commanded to rest their land every seventh year and keep the Sabbath holy, we too are called to consecrate our whole lives to Him, trusting in His provision and grace. The post A Living Sacrifice appeared first on Mt. Rose OPC.

Today we begin part 4 in our Romans series by looking at how the Gospel unites the church together. We're in Romans 12 looking at what Paul means when he says we are to be a living sacrifice and how the Spirit has given each of us spiritual gifts to be the Body of Christ.

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on December 28, 2025) In Romans 12, Paul commands us to present our bodies as “living sacrifices”. Up to this point, Paul has laid a doctrinal foundation, but now he begins to teach us our duty as disciples. There is a logical progression to Scriptural teaching, particularly in the...
One of the recurring topics tackled on Chris Fabry Live is the spiritual discipline of letting go. Author and professor Dr. Rosalie de Rosset is back with a new perspective on the subject. She says letting go is a repeating decision we make in every area of our lives. Our possessions, our relationships, our longing for the past and desire for things to not change. What do you need to let go of? Hear Rosie on Chris Fabry Live.

In this message, Pastor Mark Bonilla explores the "health epidemic" of isolation, noting that social disconnection carries a health risk equivalent to smoking 15 cigarettes a day. He proposed that the only remedy is authentic biblical community. You will learn:True community requires looking intently at each other, not just passing by.Like an egg must be broken and moved vigorously to change state, we must allow others to "irritate" our status quo for growth.It isn't just praying "for" someone; it's walking "with" them and literally lightening their load.You don't sharpen a knife with a rag. You need "no-people" and challengers who are stronger or wiser to hone your character.Main Scripture: Hebrews 10:24, Galatians 6:2, Proverbs 27:17Topic: Bible Teaching, Bible Study, Christian Leadership, Kingdom Builders, Living on a Mission, Use Your Gifts, Serve God, Pray Give Serve, Faith ForwardSupport the show ------------------------------------------WANT MORE?Say You Love Me 1: Building Healthy RelationshipsToxic 1: What are Toxic Thoughts?

Why do we hesitate to give our financial resources to God's work, even when we claim to trust Him? Pastor Dorrell confronts the defensive reactions many Christians experience toward tithing and giving by reframing money as "stored life"—the tangible representation of our time, energy, and effort. Through Romans 12:1-2, he argues that presenting ourselves as living sacrifices requires a transformed mind that recognizes giving not as obligation but as worship, a deliberate exchange of our earned resources that mirrors Christ's sacrifice. He challenges listeners to shift from conformity to worldly values toward kingdom thinking, viewing every dollar as an opportunity to invest eternally rather than temporally, and calls them to demonstrate their love for God through the concrete act of supporting His church and kingdom work.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

It is not only her own body that a woman is choosing for when she makes a decision to end a life inside of her, but it is also that body of a baby. As Christians, our bodies no longer belong to us anyway, and we are instructed to yield our bodies to God as living sacrifices.

God invites us into a partnership where transformation happens from the inside out. In light of all God has done for us through Jesus, offering our bodies as living sacrifices is not just reasonable—it is the ultimate act of worship. In this message, Associate Pastor Ryan Bramlett preaches on how when we offer our bodies, renew our minds, and partner with God, everything changes. Faith stops being about God doing His part and us doing ours and becomes a life where God and we walk together in everything. Ryan Bramlett • A Living Sacrifice • Romans 12:1 CONNECT WITH US!
