In this lesson we tackle the ever-present reality of peer pressure and how a Christian can deal with social pressures in their life.

How To Bring A Man To Jesus

Why The Name The Renewed Mind Podcast? The name for this podcast comes from a set of bible verses that sets the direction of a person's life once they realize the graciousness of God in one's salvation: Romans 12:1-2(NIV)1 Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. 2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is —his good, pleasing and perfect will. We are urged to be living sacrifices – lives given daily for the honor, glory and worship of God.  The result of sacrificing the efforts of our lives unto God will be true and proper worship of God. Verse 2 is the title verse for the podcast.  Paul makes a differentiation between the “pattern of this world” and the “good, pleasing and perfect will” of God.  As Christians we aspire to know and subsequently carry out God's will for our lives.  Paul's states that the way we abandon a worldly perspective and become transformed to live as Christians is by the renewing of our minds. My belief and experience is that the only way to transform our minds is by studying and developing an understanding of God's written will...the Word Of God.  That goal of clarity and understanding is the central focus of this podcast.
