Paul's letter to the church in Rome is known for its thorough and rich theology. It was also written to a real church and real group of early, diverse Jesus-followers struggling to live out His teachings. Chapter 12 paints a picture of living upside down: being transformed by the Spirit, not conformed by the world. It's what Paul desired for the Roman church. It's what God desires for His church today.
