Transformation Starts with the Mind | Romans 12:2
About This Video
Paul doesn’t say “try harder.” He says, “Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” In this teaching we’ll unpack how renewal actually works, spiritually, relationally, and professionally. Learn the difference between conforming to a mold and metamorphosis, why discernment (“test and approve”) is your leadership edge, and how to build daily rhythms that replace lies with truth. Change that lasts starts in the mind you’re renewing, not the image you’re managing. Takeaways -Conformity is passive pressure; transformation is Spirit-led process. -Renewal = new inputs + new interpretation → new instincts. -“Test and approve” is a practical filter for God’s will (good/pleasing/perfect). -Your culture at work mirrors your mindset as a leader. -Daily rhythms beat occasional hype: Scripture before strategy, truth over trends. Subscribe for weekly teachings on the spiritual side of business and life. This week, write down 3 lies you’re tempted to believe, and replace each with Scripture truth from Romans 12. What’s one mindset you’re replacing this month, and what truth will you put in its place?
