what is r12

r12 is a guided pathway for from a coach’s perspective based on Romans chapter 12. In Romans 12 the Apostle Paul begins outlining the personal and practical application of the doctrine he lays out in Romans chapters 1-8. Paul describes the Christian life in five categories: relationship with God, relationship with the world, relationship with ourselves, relationship with others, and relationship with enemies. Each of these categories has a corresponding “S”, or response, that the Bible says is a sign of a mature and equipped follower of Jesus Christ. In the r12 online discipleship experience we look at each of these responses:

surrendered - Romans 12:1

In our relationship with God we offer him all that we are and all that we have.

separate - Romans 12:2

In our relationship with the world we live in the world while separating ourselves from its godless values.

self assessment - Romans 12:3-8

In our relationship with ourselves we develop an accurate view of ourselves and contribute to a local church’s ministry.

serving - Romans 12:9-13

In our relationships with others we create genuine community that is built on authenticity and purity.

supernaturally - Romans 12:14-21

In our relationships with enemies we genuinely forgive and bless those who have hurt us.
