Faith seems so intangible. What is it, and what does it do? How do we live a life of faith that will please God? For the next few weeks, we will look at some people who lived by faith and what it meant for them. This week we will begin with Abel.

We’ve been studying Romans for almost a year, so what will we do with it? The Gospel isn’t just something we know, it transforms our lives and hearts. In this message, we will finish up Romans and ask the question, “Now what?”

There are few things that make us feel closer to someone than when they encourage us or recognize our work and value. As he is finishing his letter, Paul takes a significant amount of page space to recognize some significant people in Rome. This was important to him and it should be just as important to us.

Paul begins closing his letter to the Romans by sharing encouraging news of what the Gentiles have done for the believers in Jerusalem and why they did it. As we continue studying, we will be inspired by this beautiful act of fellowship.

Now that we have a firm grasp on the Gospel, what are we going to do with it? We should be proud, like Paul, of what God does through us and where He takes us. In this message, we will discuss our mission field and how to be faithful with it.

What do we do when we encounter a brother or sister in Christ who doesn’t understand the freedom of the Gospel message? How do we love them well, even if we don’t agree with their convictions? Our passage this week helps us adopt a considerate mentality.

Applying the Good News together is complicated because everyone is different. With varying experiences, knowledge bases, and personalities, the journey God has for each of us is unique. How do we maintain unity and fellowship as we learn to walk in the Gospel?

When Paul talked about dealing with persecutors, the Roman Christians may have thought first about the governing authorities. How are they supposed to think about the government in a transformed way? Paul’s response is surprising but carries a valuable lesson for us even today.

Last week, we committed ourselves to allow God to transform us into the image of Jesus, but what does that actually look like? Paul continues Romans with a laundry list of examples to help us recognize it while it’s happening.
