  4. Jesus “… predestined to be conformed to the likeness of His Son….” Rom 8:29 Fruit of the Spirit Gal 5:22-23 “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.” What are we supposed to be like?

  5. “The heart of Christianity is about transformation – about a God who isn’t just concerned with our ‘spiritual lives’ but who wants to impact every aspect of living. It’s realising that God meets us not in a monastery but on the Main Street, and that all of ordinary, daily life has the potential to be lived as if Jesus Himself were the one living it.” Expect change

  10. Our aim should not be to be a great prayer, a great Bible reader, or a great giver these are not the aims of doing any of these things, the aim is to be more like Jesus, these are the tools which God uses to change us and to make us more like Him. These are the things that put us in the place where He can change us.
