A Living Sacrifice

Sep 13, 2026    Zach Terry

What does it really mean to give your whole life to God?


In Romans 12:1–2, Pastor Zach Terry reaches a major turning point in the book of Romans. After eleven chapters explaining what God has done for us, Paul now shows us how those truths should change the way we live.


His appeal is simple but demanding: present your entire life to God as a living sacrifice. In this sermon, you’ll discover:

• Why surrender to Christ is more than simply making Him part of your life

• What it means to present your body as a “living sacrifice”

• How the pressures of the world shape the way we think and live

• Why spiritual transformation requires the daily renewal of your mind • How God’s Word changes the way you think over time

• How a renewed mind helps you discern the will of God

• Why surrender is both a decisive commitment and a lifelong process


God is not looking for one part of your life. He is calling for complete surrender.


As Pastor Zach explains, “There is a day you climb on. And there is a lifetime of refusing to climb off.”
