As we continue our Lenten journey—a season of reflection, repentance, and renewed hope—we are reminded that this is not merely a movement toward sorrow, but a cycle of light and life. Beginning on Ash Wednesday and leading us toward Easter, Lent prepares us to rejoice in the life secured for us through the death and resurrection of Christ.This week, we turn to Romans 8:6–11 to consider what it means to truly live in Christ. No longer bound to the flesh, we are given new life by the Spirit. This passage calls us to understand our new nature—not as something added on, but as the redemption and renewal of who we are in Christ. Once in darkness, we are now light; once hostile to God, we are now reconciled through union with Him.What does it mean to set our minds on the Spirit? How do we live out this new identity in a world still marked by the pull of the flesh? And how does our union with Christ empower us not only for future glory, but for present obedience?Join us as we explore the life-giving work of the Spirit, the reality of Christ in us, and the call to walk in the righteousness that is already ours in Him.
