Embracing Brokenness

The "impostor" invades every one of our lives. It's our fig leaf. It's the false-self created to prove the age-old question - Do we have what it takes? But God has a different plan. One that allows us to live out of our true-self. The self that each one of us was created for. 

It's easy to underestimate the wiles of the enemy. He would love to derail us. One thing always leads to another. Guard your heart and your mind. A trip to the shore proved it. Temptation abounds, but God wins. 

There's so much "healing" available when we decide to press into the Christian journey. One rooted in the truth about who we are. The New Me - saved by Christ and in Him. Steve asks a couple questions for you to consider as you go deeper into this journey.

We live in a world at war. The enemy lives to deceive us into believing we just don't matter. Our identity in Christ is irrelevant. Here's a brief excerpt from "Embracing Brokenness", our upcoming book, that tackles the significance of our journey toward healing in Him. 

Sometimes the lessons of life come in the simplest forms. In this weeks podcast, we look at Rafiki and Simba in "The Lion King". They give us a glimpse into our journey of discovery. God calls us up, in this adventurous life, to uncover our true identity in Him. Yet the world distracts us from that calling. Discovering who we are in Him becomes a trek through a seemingly never-ending maze. It doesn't have to be that hard. Look inside. He's in You. 

 What would it look like for you to Wait WITH God not FOR God? Abiding in Him such that anxiety over your future is a distant memory? Steve takes a deeper dive into this concept.

We live in a world where safety and security is paramount. But what about people? Who can you trust? Who can't you trust? The attributes of safe people need to be explored. Colleen and Steve teach a course on Identity in Christ. Listen in to this short segment on the subject of trust and safety in relationships.

Is it possible that a season of change is coming? Are you willing to lay down what may seem right now for the greater good God has for you and those around you? Let's explore that as Steve digs deeper into these questions. #yesterdaysmanna #ischangecoming #embracingbrokenness
