How will you know students’ lives are being transformed?

I think I will know that students lives are being transformed when I can see their actions matching the transformation that God is calling them to. I think a lot of times, it is easy to say that I am a Christian, or I believe in Jesus, but the evidence of our beliefs, or lack thereof, is often found in the things we say and do. My students will show evidence of Christ's transformation because they will be challenged to live life differently than they have before. If they are not changing in their desire to know Christ and follow him, then we need to look at the causes for why transformation is not occurring.
