God's Word at Work in You
Cultivating Christian CharacterSteve Gregg
In "God's Word at Work in You", Steve Gregg discusses the importance of cultivating Christian character and the role of God's Word in shaping our thoughts and attitudes. He notes that knowledge of the Scriptures alone is not enough, but must be combined with a willingness to submit to God's teachings and allow ourselves to be transformed. Gregg draws parallels between the creative power of God's Word in Genesis and the transformative power of the Word in our lives. The key, according to Gregg, is to obey the teachings of God's Word and not be slothful or disobedient, but to let the Word work in us to bring about lasting change.
