5.0 out of 5 stars A Pleasing Beginning to Romans 12:1-2, September 23, 2002

This review is from: Mind Renewal in a Mindless Age: Preparing to Think and Act Biblically : A Study of Romans 12:1-2 (Paperback)

This is a relatively short study, but Dr. Boice hits the nail on the proverbial head with this book, as it relates to the whys and wherefores of Romans 12:1-2, where the Scripture teaches us not to be conformed to this world, but to be transformed by the renewing of the mind. It's a good beginning, but not a comprehensive one, and for the concept, it's an excellent start. He focuses on keeping the mind sharp and Christ-centered, always stressing that our minds should be open to the Spirit of God by way of the Word of God teaching us what our minds should hold. This is not a confrontational or controversial approach, but an intelligent overview of a much needed study in today's church. Recommended.

James Boice does a terrific job in explaining the needed transformation of the Christian's mind. He explains the why we should want to be transformed and what we are to be transformed from and into. He does a great job of defining a worldly view of life and how to obtain a biblical view of life. He is up front and accurately protrays reality with documentation. Our churches need this teaching! Recommended.
