Hosts Shelly and June Volk conclude their week-long broadcast on "newness of life," emphasizing that believers must actively step out of comfortable, static conditions and embrace spiritual transformation through Christ.

Key Takeaways


The Two Adams: Humanity's fallen nature through the first Adam is redeemed through the obedience, death, and resurrection of Jesus (the second Adam), giving believers the Spirit of truth.


Radical Transformation: Living as a new creation is not a minor self-improvement; it is a fundamental shift from the old creature to walking in resurrection life.


Four Pillars of Newness: Based on Colossians 2:6–7, walking in Christ means being rooted in Him, built up in Him, established in faith, and overflowing with gratitude.


Moving Beyond Comfort Zones: Just as Israel was commanded to leave Mount Sinai (Deuteronomy 1:6), believers are called to move past spiritual stagnation and embrace God's ongoing, disturbing, yet necessary shifts.


Prioritizing Christ's Will: True spiritual maturity occurs when believers surrender personal plans, putting the "You" of Jesus before the "me" of self.
