Spiritual Identity

Do you think of your identity as how your family raised you? When people ask who you are, do you say I’m a mom or dad, or do you talk about your job? Do you define yourself by your successes or failures? Confidently knowing your identity offers freedom from painful pasts, broken relationships, and empty idols. Yet, so many of us struggle to get to this place. Nancy Fujii knows this firsthand.

There are true things about us and there are truer things. David Lomas invites readers to move beyond what may simply be true to the truest thing, discovering a real identity in Christ. We are all bundles of competing desires and half-true labels. We arry them around like scars; we carry them around like badges. They tell us we are no more than a job description, relationship status, or appearance. But the most important and truest identity of every Christian is that they are loved, accepted, and created in the image of God.

God’s word stored in our memory and hearts will change and shape our lives. This inspired heart craves glory to God expressions within all facets of life–each activity, our thoughts, giftings, our work, and relationships.

Who is a Christian? We are who God says we are. In the Bible, verses that use prepositional phrases like in Christ, in him, through him, by him, and others often contain statements about our true identity. In Him: Establishing Our Identity in Christ contains several of these verses along with powerful biblical declarations to help you renew your mind and embrace who you really are: a new creation in Christ.

The purpose of this workbook is to help the listener embark on a journey — a journey of growing in Christ-awareness, self-awareness, self-control and self-regulation. In Proverbs 16:32, the Holy Spirit reveals and teaches us, not only the importance of self-control, but also its power. This power is on full display when we exercise spiritual, mental, emotional and physical patience. May the Lord Jesus richly bless the listeners and doers of this audiobook, for His glory, your good and the good of others you influence for His Kingdom!
