Everyone searches for a clear identity and craves to be known for something. Some find identity in their career, working overtime to do more than just pay the bills, but to stroke the ego and experience the feelings thatgo along with high-profile accomplishments. Others define themselves in relationships, sometimes enduring unhealthy ones because, "Hey, it's better than being alone." Possessions can be identifiers. The new car becomes an expression of self; he likes the way other people look at his ride in traffic. While careers, relationships, possessions, and other things are important aspects of our daily lives, they do not last forever. It is God who breathes purpose and meaning into the details of our lives, and when we seek our identity in places other than Christ, we find ourselves empty.Identity, by bestselling author Eric Geiger (Simple Church, Designed to Lead, Creature of the Word) presents an exciting choice: to bounce back and forth between fleeting earthly fulfillments or to embrace God's invitation to lose our lives and find our identity in Him. Come discover who you really are in Christ.
