Have you ever struggled to Be You?

So many of us spend our lives trying to be someone else. 

In this episode, Gary encourages listeners about Gods purposeful design and shares a story about how God taught him this lesson during the NCAA National Championship game in 2009. 

Listen as Gary shares his story from old identity to new identity. We are not defined by our performance or what other people think. We are defined by who God declares us to be.
