Renew Reform
Featured
Through the account of Hezekiah in 2 Chronicles, we are encouraged to seek and be obedient to God in the areas He has given us responsibility.
We are created to be in relationship and through the lens of Ephesians 2, Mark points out that we, as members of God’s household, are built together by the Spirit. Our relationships, when we are moving towards Christ, are equipped to be healthy and life-giving dwelling places of God’s presence in the world.
Further exploring the distinction between, body, soul & spirit, Mark posits that God’s invitation into deep inner reformation happens, not in the soul but in the spirit through the way made by Jesus on the Cross.
In a time of increasing disorientation and apathy, our hearts often align with narratives of self. To be renewed, our hearts must seek and be reformed by the wisdom of the Word and the authority of the Spirit.
Looking back to the reformation, when the bible was returned to the hands of the people, Mark posits that we are at a juncture where in order for renewal to break out, the people of God need to experience a reformation where the Bible is brought back into the hearts of His people.
