LIVING SACRIFICES addresses the call of God for each of us to live an important life. Our model is the resurrected Christ, who offered Himself as a living sacrifice. Following the general themes of chapter 12 of the New Testament book of Romans, Part 1 first takes in view the fullness of God's sacrificial mercy. In Part 2, the text illustrates the transformative capacity found only in cooperation with God's provision on our personal behalf. In Part 3, the text seeks to reveal the power and authority we have been granted to overcome evil with good LIVING SACRIFICES weaves together common sense prose, solid scriptural exposition, and candid personal testimony, with unique parables and anecdotes that illustrate the text. An original poem opens and sets the theme for each chapter. The author -- a visual artist, educator, college administrator, and a member of the Grammy Award-winning Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir -- seeks to offer his unique point of view so that those dying to live a more important life may capture a vision of a life worth giving.
