Description

Finding Freedom in Jesus explores 21 biblical terms that reveal our identity as believers in Christ, empowering us to grow and be transformed by the truth. These terms serve as guiding principles, helping us overcome past hurts, habits, and negative self-perceptions, so we can fully embrace our true identity in Christ. We all carry wounds from the words and actions of others, but it's crucial to remember how our Creator sees us. Instead of dwelling on distorted images of pain, we need to look into a God-centered mirror that reflects His viewpoint. Our identity is not defined by others' opinions; rather, when we see ourselves through our Heavenly Father's eyes, everything changes. As we learn and reflect on these transformative terms, our understanding of who we are in Christ deepens. This experiential knowledge leads to a vibrant spiritual life, a stronger reliance on the Lord, and a greater confidence in serving others. Let's embark on this journey of self-discovery and embrace the abundant life God has for us!
