Romans 13 confronts one of the most uncomfortable tensions in the Christian life: How to live faithfully under authority while ultimately belonging to God.

In a society that resists submission and elevates personal freedom, this chapter calls believers to live with integrity, humility, and purpose. From how we relate to governing authorities to how we treat one another in love, this series challenges us to reflect Christ in every sphere of life. Because how we live under authority reveals who we truly belong to.

We’re back in “Living Sacrifice” – Part Two this weekend, and the Apostle Paul takes us straight into the tension of how the gospel reshapes our response to governing authorities. It’s a message that challenges our view of submission in a politically divided and morally conflicted world.
