    As Christians, we are called not to conform to the world's patterns but to be transformed by renewing our minds. This transformation requires intentional daily living.

    Let's kick things off with a little experiment. I've got a video of a chameleon here. What's the first thing you notice about it? Right, it changes colors to blend in with its surroundings.
