Who am I? Our Identity In Christ (sermon)
I taught on Mother’s Day but ironically start out with a bit of a twist…
This is a sermon about our identity in Christ. I wanted to explore what it means: who we are, who He is, what He’s done, who we are in Him and how to struggle to keep it real ongoing.
A principle verse in this idea is John 1:12 NASB
“But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name,”
