In Romans 12, Paul shares that Christ followers can be transformed by the renewing of their minds. Then he shares that one example is by learning to think of ourselves with “sober judgment”, and recognizing our essential role within the body of Christ. Every follower of Jesus has been given unique spiritual gifts that should be used to build up the church and glorify God. Therefore, knowing and using those gifts within the church family is not optional but vital for a healthy, functioning body.
