DO NOT BE CONFORMED TO THIS WORLD BUT BE TRANSFORMED BY THE RENEWING OF YOUR MIND...

02

In other words...

Don’t become so well-adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even thinking.

Readily recognize what HE wants from you and quickly respond to it.

In more words...Learn to SHIFT your thinking from world-thoughts to God-thoughts.

That’s our META-thought for this weekend. Let’s learn to escape the squeezing pressure of doing it the worlds way, realign, SHIFT our mind to seeing and thinking and acting God’s way!

Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.

The LORD had said to Abram, "Leave your country, your people and your father's household and go to the land I will show you. "I will make you into a great nation and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you." So Abram left, as the LORD had told him; and Lot went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he set out from Haran.

Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord's will is. Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit.

20 In a large house there are articles not only of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay; some are for noble purposes and some for ignoble. 21If a man cleanses himself from the latter, he will be an instrument for noble purposes, made holy, useful to the Master and prepared to do any good work.

Take some time to prepare your mind for a truth SHIFT. Use the scriptures Bill will teach on in the SHIFT sessions as a meditation point for your journal entry before each session. In your journal write what you feel God is saying to you after each session.

Each morning after the main session, take a 20 minute zoom through some tough topics that require ome solid thought. High School students will look at sex and intelligent design and Middle School students will focus on compassion and the discipline of quiet times.
