July 2025

How do you introduce yourself when you meet someone new? Like me, you probably share details about your life: where you work, children if you have them, what you do in your spare time. In a sense you are defined by who you are and what you do. This is your “identity.”

Others can see this as they observe how we spend our time and our energy. It shows what we value, and where we get meaning. Getting this right in our lives is crucial, and crucial for every follower of Christ! This month I would like to put a tool in your hands that will speak to this. More on that in a moment.

We make the mistake of believing our identity is rooted in what we do, our accomplishments, our position, our status, our wealth. Sadly, this creates an unstable foundation. We can even come to idolize good areas in our lives instead of finding our identity in Christ and him alone.

What does it look like to let God fuel your identity? The book of Acts dramatically illustrates it. Early Christians helped people see Jesus in the way they prayed, the way they shared what God had done, and how they cared for those in need.

On our broadcast series, How Jesus Acts Through Us Today, we are walking through the life-altering truth of how God lives in us and touches the world through us. The disciples of Jesus understood putting God at the center of their lives. It’s the way we should live as well. We must have our identity in Christ.

I mentioned the importance of helping others grasp this pivotal truth. Chances are there is someone in your life you care deeply about, who you would like to help learn what it means to have our identity in Christ. Maybe that person is you!

To help, I want to send you a transformative devotional that looks at key identity issues and the truth of God's Word. It’s called Identity: Discovering Who You Are in Christ. It will help establish a biblical foundation for identity, despite the pressures they face.

I want to send you this 88-page book as a thank-you for your donation of any amount this month in support of God Centered Life. Your generous gift will help us continue our mission as we impact more lives around the world.

Thank you in advance for standing with us. We are grateful! And if there are ways we can pray for you and encourage you, please do not hesitate to contact us at info@godcenteredlife.org.

Resting in Him,
