Show Summary: What labels do you put on yourself? What labels have been put on you? We tend to define ourselves through both good and bad labels that shift over time. They may hype us up or tear us down as we get older, but God doesn’t want us to live trapped in these labels. Join hosts Eryn Eddy Adkins, Elisa Morgan, and Vivian Mabuni as they look to Scripture to see how God sees us. Open your Bibles and get ready for this powerful God Hears Her conversation.
