Embracing Full Dedication to God

This Sunday, Pastor Jon continued our Formed series with a teaching on mortification, the practice of subduing one’s sinful impulses, desires, and passions to grow closer to God and lead a life of holiness. Mortifying our sin is not self-hatred, but rather an embrace of God’s love that purges impurity through the conscious denial of sin, the deliberate restraint of the flesh, and the nurturing of one’s spirit to align more closely with the will of God.
