Finding Identity: A Journey Through 1 John
November 23, 2024 from 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
The issue of identity is central to human existence. How we view ourselves deeply influences the way we live in the world.
Many questions arise when the topics of identity and Christianity come together: Is identity given to us or is it something we discover or create for ourselves? Do people have inherent worth or must value be earned? What should we do with base motives and inclinations we discover within ourselves? Are there fundamental truths that, when embraced, enable us to lead a life of freedom and love?
The Christian message asserts that when we allow our identity to arise from how God views us and what God has done for us in Jesus, we are liberated to live as we were designed. In this five-week series based on the book of 1 John, we explore the identity that God offers to humanity through the gospel. We also unearth how the practices of Bible reading and prayer fuel the new identity of a Christian and reorient our lives in that light.
Meets June 26, July 10, July 24, August 7, and August 21.
