J. D. Walt reflects on returning to date-specific introductions for the daily Wake-Up Call, inviting listeners to weigh in through a short survey. He then opens Romans 12:1—his “Jesus Manifesto”—to explore what it means to offer our bodies together as “a living sacrifice.” He emphasizes that God’s people are one family, not isolated individuals, and that this kind of transformed life is possible only when lived continually in view of God’s mercy.

The episode closes in prayer and turns the central idea into a personal reflection: keeping God’s mercy as a forward-facing vision rather than something left in the past. J. D. and his father sing “Be Thou My Vision,” invite listeners to share hymn requests, and encourage the audience to share the Wake-Up Call with others. J. D. also introduces an Advent reader called Behold, offering a buy-one, share-one invitation as a way to help more people join the daily practice.
