Pastor Rodney and Pastor Samson recap the week’s readings by highlighting Romans 12–16’s call to be a “living sacrifice,” transformed by the Holy Spirit, and to relate to government with humble submission while ultimately obeying God—while also pointing out the early church’s strong presence of women leaders like Phoebe and Priscilla. They connect that theme of holiness and covenant faithfulness through Leviticus (set apart, consequences + God’s steadfast promise), Psalms 34–36 (God’s justice and unfailing love), and Ruth (God’s “lovingkindness” and the kinsman-redeemer pointing to Jesus), then close with Proverbs 7 as a warning that God’s wisdom protects us from destructive temptation and sexual sin.
