Many times it is hard for us missionaries to know our source of identity and worth, and in this episode field worker and leader Seba V from London shares a useful teaching on missionary identity. 

All missionaries share 3 common identities: We are all God's creation, God's child, and God's missionary. Our worth, value, and righteousness come ONLY through our identities as God's creation and God's children, which are our unchanging, foundational identities. Being a missionary is a functional identity that determines our distinct rhythms, and must not be where we draw worth, or we will be on a roller coaster of emotions depending on our success or failure in the work. We also have other functional identities, such as a spouse, a parent, a single, or even a pastor, and we must be sure that we form our expectations for those roles from God's Word. This episode will clarify for you where your worth comes from, which frees you to serve in your functional identities with security and joy.
