Description

As a Christian, you have received more than God's forgiveness. You also have a brand new identity! You are a new creation in Christ, with fresh and exciting privileges and responsibilities. And God wants you to walk confidently in this identity, serving Him with joy and energy in your various roles as - A son or daughter of God - A saint of God - A soldier of God - An ambassador of God - A friend of God - A manager of God's resources. The Real You gives you a close-up view of these different roles and equips you with the sound biblical insights you need to fulfill them. You'll discover new ways to make your citizenship in God's kingdom a daily reality right where you live. If you are the discussion leader, you will find additional suggestions and helpful ideas in the Leader's Notes.
