(Romans 12:1-2): We are told to “discern” what God’s will is as opposed to seeking the approval of people. Our highest concern should be what God says is best, not what other people think. Living for the approval of people isn’t freedom; it’s slavery.

(Romans 12:1-2): Our culture values money, possessions, success, and fame as the highest virtues. God doesn’t see them as virtues at all. God determines what’s good, true, and beautiful so when we look to Him for answers He will always point us in the direction of true wealth.
