Welcome back to Candid Mic, in episode 004, I Mitchell lavender, your host, will show you who God says you are from the Bible, and how life can make this truth difficult to believe because of peer pressure. Finding my identity was extremely difficult growing up. I was the youngest of four, the nerd, the break-dancer. There are so many identities out there, ones we want, and one that are placed on us, but I want to show you that you are either worth saving, or saved. In the next episode we will learn in detail about the image that God says should be the real you, because were made to be in God’s image, but we fell. Sometimes we forget how bad our fall was, and how beautiful the image of God is. In this episode We will discuss the reality of God’s image, and the reality of who we are to God. Principles to Consider: Identity Image Peer pressure Reputation Character Perception Right with God Lost Scriptures to Examine Genesis 1:26-27 Ezekiel 18:32 Amos 4:6-12 Hosea 11 Romans 8 Colossians 1 2nd Corinthians 5 Reflection Questions Who do you think you are? Why do you believe that? Do you think peer pressure has affected what you believe your identity should be? Are you ashamed to bear the name Christian, minister, police officer...etc.? In what part of your life would you say you are in? The fall? or have you been saved? Who influenced your ideas of who you wanted to be growing up? What were you told about yourself by other people?
