This sermon, delivered by a 17-year-old first-time preacher named Alexis, explores the biblical understanding of purpose beyond career choices and life plans. Drawing from personal experiences at Teen Catalyst and Chosen conferences, the message emphasizes that God's purpose for believers is discovered through understanding their identity in Christ. The sermon systematically breaks down three essential elements: knowing who we are in Christ (identity), understanding what God calls us to do (calling), and taking appropriate actions (response). The central theological point is that Christians are called to live like Jesus—in love and in light—sharing His character with everyone they encounter. Rather than focusing on self-determined purposes, believers should pursue God's purpose: to represent Christ always, to be lights in the world, and to reconcile people back to God through Christ-like living.
