MEN’S SEASON Breaking Through

to Become Kingdom Men

Scripture 1 Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s

mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God – this is your true and proper worship. 2 Do not conform to the patterns 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. ~Romans 12:1-2
