Have you ever heard of solitary confinement? It's when prisoners are kept all alone. It's pretty rough and can mess with their heads. We're made ...read more

    Contributed by Chris Mccall on Nov 21, 2012
     | 3,787 views

    A living sacrifice is different from all other sacrifice. A regular sacrifice would require something to die. Paul is appealing to us to offer this sacrifice that would continue to be very much alive, but surrendered or dedicated to the service of God.
