Renew Your Mind

As usual, James Montgomery Boice, has written an excellent book teaching us to think and act Biblically while studying Romans 12:1-2. While it may seem to be a stretch, I used this book when leading a study of the book of Ezra. God definitely was directing this step. We studied the fall and rebuilding of the temple in Jerusalem while discussing the turmoil of the nation and world around us. Boice covers the problems of relativism extremely well.

Be transformed

I don't give five star ratings very often. This is one of the best books I have read in a quite a while. Dr. Boice eloquently, convincingly and helpfully explains how the Christian life is one marked by an utter transformation (renewal) of the mind. In part, this book is an exposition of Roman 12:1-2 in which the Apostle Paul commands Christians to no longer conform to the pattern of the world but to be transformed by the renewing of our minds. Dr. Boice calls us to recognize that man is both more important than we often realize, to understand that the effects of the Fall are more severe than we often realize and to actively pursue a life of conformity to the will of God through the renewing of our minds. If you're not familiar with Dr. Boice, I encourage you to get your hands on some of his books. This one is a great place to start.
