Today’s application: Knowing I am full of purpose changes how I live when I’ve lost the things important to me.
If you’ve found yourself in a season of life where you feel like you’re losing what you hold dear, this one’s for you. You may not know David Smallbone‘s face, but you might know his kids – for King & Country and Rebecca St. James. He’s been the manager and a driving force behind their music, but not before living a remarkable story of devastating loss and learning to root his identity in Christ.
Now, in his later years, he’s watching friends go through retirement, become empty nesters, or go through marriage trouble, but he firmly believes that no season of life is without beautiful and deep purpose.

Yet, this conversation is radically altered when we know our identity in Christ! So let’s talk about it! Pastor Josh Howerton and Jeremiah Wright from The Bridge Church in Spring Hill, TN join us to share their different perspectives – one black man, one white man, but ultimately, two men who belong to Christ!

Today’s application: Knowing I am not defined by my failures changes how I parent!
Who we are as parents is not perfect. We mess up and say things we wish we hadn’t, yet even then, God is at work in the identity of your kids. Actor, filmmaker, and family man, Kirk Cameron, drops some incredible wisdom on how to take imperfect parenting decisions and turn them into God moments. Keeping our identity rooted in Christ as parents is the best way to encourage our children to find their own identity in Christ, too!
