Walking in Newness of Lfe

Oct 6, 2026  •  Bishop Calvin M. Hooper

Reading: Romans 6:1-14; Titus 2:11-14


Devotional: Paul makes clear that resurrection life is not only a theological category; it is a practical direction. We are called to walk in newness of life, and walking is ordinary. It happens on Tuesday afternoons, in traffic, in difficult conversations, and in the quiet moments when no one is watching. Sin's authority over the believer has been broken. That does not mean temptation disappears, but it does mean temptation no longer has the final word. Grace forgives the old walk and trains us into a new one. The question is not whether you have stumbled. The question is what direction you are moving.


Reflection Questions:


Where do you see evidence of movement in your walk with Christ, even if the growth feels slow?

Are there areas where you have confused incomplete growth with no growth, or used ongoing struggle as an excuse to avoid turning?


Practical Application: Choose one specific area of daily conduct where you sense God calling you to walk differently. Make one concrete decision today that reflects the direction of new life rather than old habits.
