Session 4: Be Transformed

When the Bible talks about Spiritual transformation, it's always something that God does to us, rather than something we do to ourselves. Willpower Christianity puts all the emphasis on our ability to manage behaviors and control our worst impulses. But willpower alone can never address the deeply ingrained habits of sin. Only God can transform our hearts. But how can we open our hearts and minds to the transforming work God is trying to do? The answer lies in the spiritual disciplines (prayer, fasting, meditation, etc). Through these spiritual practices, we allow God to get to work on our hearts.
