Transformation:
Transformation is at the heart of the gospel. When we come to Christ, we are not just improved versions of our old selves; we are made new. As Paul writes in 2 Corinthians 5:17, “If anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!” This transformation is not a one-time event but an ongoing process as the Holy Spirit works within us to shape us into the image of Christ. But transformation doesn’t happen in isolation. God often uses the Church—His people—to encourage, challenge, and walk alongside us as we grow. Here at PBC, we have been fortunate to experience and celebrate this transformation up-close and personally.
Will you take a moment today to pray for transformation in your own life and in the lives of those in our church? Ask God to renew minds, soften hearts, and deepen faith so that we might reflect His love and truth more fully to the world around us
