Devotional. Hey, welcome back to our podcast. My name was Mike Bro and just honored to get to hang

with you for a few minutes today. Thanks for joining us. We're working

our way through a passage in the Bible, Romans chapter 12. We're just doing verses 9 through 21,

just a few minutes every day. You can go back and start reading it all over again. I think

it's a good exercise for you. What I've been doing, you know, the past 40 years actually

is writing stuff in the margin of my Bible, and I got a ton of stuff in Romans chapter 12 because I've used it.

I don't know how to even put it in a, sort of like a, you know how those NFL referees go to the replay monitor to see the previous play?

I've got to use Romans 12 kind of like a replay monitor, but I can check it.

Like, how am I doing? Can I look at, if God wants me to live a different kind of life,

what does being built different look like? So I've revisited this chapter a lot in my life.

And these, because these verses lay out a description of what the kind of different life looks like.

We've already seen that it involves things like love and authenticity and goodness and devotion and brotherly affection and honor, attaching a high price tag, and living your

life with passion and enthusiasm, serving other people, and being patient and hard times,

and praying all the time and being dependent upon God.

We talk about sharing our stuff and having generous hospitality, a big open table,

loving our enemies, and grieving with each other and celebrating with each other,

and living in harmony with each other, and walking without a hint of conceit or arrogance.
