Romans | The Shape of a Life Formed by Mercy Pt.2 | Romans 12: 1-8 | Ep. 31

Paul shows that a life shaped by God’s mercy is never meant to be lived alone. In Romans 12:3–8, he moves from personal worship to shared community, calling believers into humble belonging within the Body of Christ. The Gospel reshapes how we see ourselves — guarding us from pride and despair — and anchors us in mutual dependence on one another. From that belonging flows faithful service, as each believer uses God-given gifts to strengthen the church. These gifts are not for comparison or recognition, but for building others up in love. This message invites us to reflect on where we are stepping into deeper community and faithfully serving with what God has given us.
