ROMANS 7:18-25; 8:1-9; 12:1-2

What controls your mind will eventually shape your habits, your decisions, and your life.

In this message from The Garden Life Church, Karlos Lyons, LPC continues our Let This Mind sermon series with Week Three: Shift Your Mind. This teaching walks through the tension between the flesh and the Spirit, the law of God, the law of sin, and the renewing of the mind through Christ.

Using Romans 7:18​-25, Romans 8:1-9, and Romans 12:1-2, this message reminds us that we are not stuck in old patterns, cycles, habits, or mindsets. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, our minds can be renewed, our habits can be reshaped, and our lives can bear fruit.

In this sermon, you’ll learn about:

• The battle between the flesh and the Spirit

• How to set your mind on the things of the Spirit

• Why habit formation matters in spiritual growth

• The importance of guarding your gates

• How Scripture, prayer, fasting, solitude, community, and giving help renew the mind

• Why transformation begins with what we focus on

If you’ve been feeling stuck in old cycles, old thoughts, or old behaviors, this message is an invitation to shift your mind and grow forward in Christ.
