Today's Scripture - Romans 12:9-21Our world still needs Christians who will show common sense, willing to give the last full measure of devotion
Are you actually repenting… or just feeling bad? In this episode of The Disciples Journal, I'm unpacking what true repentance really means—and why it's more than just saying “I'm sorry.” We're breaking down the difference between worldly sorrow and godly sorrow, what it means to “make room” for God in your life, and why repentance is ultimately about relationship, not religion. From personal stories to powerful Scripture (Romans 2:4, Acts 26, 2 Corinthians 7:10), this episode challenges you to stop settling for half-hearted faith and start living in the fullness of life that Jesus offers. Repentance is the response the gospel demands. And it's not out of guilt—it's a response to His kindness. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Big Idea: Christ's resurrection provides the only hope for me to be saved.This Easter Sunday, we looked at Romans 10:1–10, where Paul expresses his deep desire for Israel to be saved and explains how salvation is available to all who believe. We saw that righteousness comes not through the law, but through faith in Christ.Paul emphasizes that if we confess with our mouths and believe in our hearts that God raised Jesus from the dead, we will be saved (v. 9). This is the heart of the gospel—salvation by grace through faith, not by works.This passage reminds us that the hope of Easter is not in our performance, but in the power of Christ's resurrection.

May 12, 2025What happens when humanity trades the truth of God for a lie? Romans 1 paints a sobering picture of what it means when God gives people over to the desires of their own hearts. In a world full of idols shaped in our own image, we're reminded that God's wrath is not impulsive anger—but the righteous response to our willful rebellion. This message will challenge what you think about sin, culture, and the cost of rejecting the Creator for created things.Scripture:Romans 1:17-32Resources:FaceBook- FCC Young AdultsInstagram- @fccyaEmail- fccyadmin@fccsantamaria.orgWebsite- fccsantamaria.org

Paul begins by thanking God for the Roman believers, whose faith was so vibrant it was known throughout the world—reminding us that gratitude and prayer must be the foundation of all Christian relationships and ministry. He emphasizes his deep desire to visit and encourage them, reflecting the mutual strengthening that comes through Christian fellowship and the shared pursuit of spiritual growth.

In this enlightening episode of "Faith with Friends," host Lisa Lorenzo takes listeners on a soul-stirring journey of spiritual transformation and renewed faith, focusing on the theme of surrender in the kingdom of God. Set against the backdrop of the upcoming Resurrection Sunday, Lisa delves deep into Romans 12:1-2, unraveling the importance of transformation through the renewing of the mind and offering ourselves as living sacrifices, much like Jesus did. This episode is a profound exploration of surrender not as weakness but as the pathway to spiritual clarity and strength.Lisa emphasizes the concept of surrender from a biblical perspective, offering a fresh interpretation of Romans 12 and touching on the spiritual metamorphosis akin to Jesus' transfiguration. She passionately explains that true transformation is not about behavior modification but an internal spiritual renewal that comes from surrendering one's life to God's will. The episode encourages listeners to saturate their hearts with God's word, to let the Holy Spirit address their false beliefs, and to practice prayerful surrender. Through personal anecdotes and scriptural references, Lisa paints a vivid picture of the benefits of surrender, including divine peace, clarity, and strength found in weakness, illustrating how letting go can lead to profound growth and intimacy with God.Key Takeaways:Spiritual Surrender: True transformation stems from surrendering your will and plans to God, finding strength and change through letting go, not holding on.Transformation through Scripture: Romans 12:1-2 is highlighted as a cornerstone for understanding spiritual renewal, with emphasis on non-conformity to the world.Metamorphosis and Renewal: Lisa discusses the concept of metamorphosis as both a spiritual and an internal change, urging listeners to renew their minds for lasting change.Benefits of Surrender: Emphasized benefits include peace beyond understanding, clarity, and God-directed paths, as referenced from Philippians 4 and Proverbs 3.Daily Practice of Surrender: Encouragement to integrate surrender into daily life by aligning thoughts and actions with God's truths for transformation from within.Notable Quotes:"In the kingdom of God, surrender is not weakness. It's where transformation begins.""Our strength sometimes is not how much we can hold on, but how quickly we can let go."

Send us a textEpisode Title: Will Being Religious Make You Right with God?Scripture: Romans 2:17-29Episode Summary:When people confront the reality that they will one day stand before God, they often seek justification through their religious identity. Many assume that participating in religious practices—such as baptism, communion, or church attendance—earns them a special standing before God. But does outward religiosity truly make someone right with Him?In Romans 2:17-29, Paul directly challenges the false security of religious privilege. He speaks to the Jews of his day, but his words extend to anyone who believes religious identity or external rituals guarantee righteousness. Paul dismantles this assumption in three key ways:The Privileges of the Jewish People (Romans 2:17-20) – They had the law, knowledge of God's will, and saw themselves as guides and teachers of the blind.The Reality of Their Actions (Romans 2:21-24) – They taught others but failed to obey the law themselves, leading to hypocrisy and dishonoring God.A Challenge to Their Assumptions About Circumcision and True Identity (Romans 2:25-29) – Paul declares that true righteousness is a matter of the heart, not external rituals.Paul's message is clear: it is not religious rituals, ceremonies, or outward symbols that make one right with God—it is a transformed heart and genuine faith that count.Key Takeaways:Outward religious practices do not justify a person before God.True righteousness is an inward transformation by the Spirit.Religious hypocrisy leads to dishonoring God rather than glorifying Him.Faith and obedience from the heart matter more than external religious labels.Join us as we explore how Paul's message applies not only to the first-century but to all who seek to understand what it truly means to be right with God.Support the showFor an ad-free version of my podcasts plus the opportunity to enjoy hours of exclusive content and two bonus episodes a month whilst also helping keep the Bible Project Daily Podcast free for listeners everywhere support me at;|PatreonSupport me to continue making great content for listeners everywhere.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.com

One mark of a supernaturally changed heart is a changed attitude and view of races and cultures. In social relations, grace-changed Christians use their power to serve, not exploit. We're going to look at this by looking at a dispute that happened in the church of Rome, and by comparing it to another dispute. These passages show us 1) the problems that culture poses, 2) the solutions, true and false, and 3) how we get the power to implement the true solution. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on June 26, 2016. Series: What We Are Becoming: Transforming Love. Scripture: Romans 14:1-3, 14:14-15:7.

The Word of God is alive. It speaks to us. Keywords: Bible; Word; Holy Spirit; teach; grow; faith.Scripture: Romans 15:4
When the Greeks and Romans met the early Christians, one of the first things that surprised them was how Christians handled suffering. Christianity brought into the world a view and a way of handling suffering that the world had never seen. It was one of the evidences of a supernaturally changed heart. And in Romans 8, a passage that looks at all the benefits of salvation, we learn a lot about suffering. Romans 8 shows us 1) the unique Christian view of suffering, 2) the unique resources we get to face suffering, and 3) how we can make those resources our own.

What are the characteristics of a supernaturally changed heart? You can be very moral and active in church and still be an incredibly impatient, bitter person. So we're looking at what Paul says are the marks of a supernaturally changed heart. And for this, Romans 12 is an explosive passage. Let's look at what this passage says about 1) patience and graciousness in life in general, and 2) love and forgiveness in the face of mistreatment. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on May 8, 2016. Series: What We Are Becoming: Transforming Love. Scripture: Romans 12:9-21.
