In this episode, I dive deep into the question, "Who are you, really?" We explore how our identities are often defined by what we do, the roles we play, and how others perceive us. Drawing from personal stories—like a one-way road mishap, baseball highs and lows, and even the rickety roller coaster of life—I illustrate the challenges of tying our self-worth to external success. We unpack the four problems of basing identity on performance and turn to biblical truths in Colossians 3 to discover the peace and stability of a Christ-centered identity. Whether you're a believer or just curious, this episode will challenge you to rethink where you find your value and encourage you to live authentically from your God-given identity.
