Madelyn’s Reviews > After You Believe: Why Christian Character Matters > Status Update

Paul wants Christian habits of the heart and life to come naturally. “But to get to that point, they must learn to think, must be ‘transformed by the renewal of their minds,’ and must then allow that transformation to inform and redirect their habits of life.” p.173

Slowly moving through this one. I enjoyed chapter four on how Jesus gives us a model of obedience.

“Worship and stewardship, generating justice, and beauty: these are the primary vocations of God’s redeemed people. And the habits of heart, mind, and life to which we are called are designed to form us, gradually and bit by a bit, and into people who can, with the hard-won “second nature“ that we call virtue, freely and gladly take forward these tasks.”
