Sober Minded, Spiritually Informed
For March, our focus is on the quality of sober-mindedness. The apostle Paul used this word in 1 Timothy 3:2 to refer to a mind informed by Scripture. It functions in a way that is based on a biblical perspective, so it is level-headed and able to reason in difficult situations, not rushing to extreme perspectives. Explore the meaning of this quality and include it in your monthly focus on developing godly character.
