“And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind” (Romans 12:2, NKJV). Conformity happens passively, simply by absorbing what’s around us without resistance. Transformation requires something more active.
The renewing of the mind isn’t a one-time event. It’s an ongoing process, retraining how we think, what we value, and what we assume is normal.
It’s worth an honest look at how much of your thinking has simply been shaped by default, by culture, by whatever surrounds you, rather than by intentional renewal.
What’s one area where your mind has been quietly conformed rather than actively renewed lately?
