Discovering True Identity: Loved By God
Manage episode 442418335 series 3603288
Ready for a deep dive into a question that we all wrestle with: "Who am I?" In this episode, we're steering clear of the usual self-help territory and going straight to the source—our identity in Christ. We are joined by the renowned biblical counselor and author, Elise Fitzpatrick.
Elise doesn’t hold back as she shares the transformative message that we are unceasingly, passionately, and personally loved by God. She uses the powerful analogy of Christ as our husband and us as His bride to emphasize a deep, devoted, and passionate love that can move mountains.
We delve into Romans 8:35-39, exploring how nothing can separate us from the love of God. Elise explains how this passage lists out all the hardships we face—tribulation, distress, persecution, and more—and reassures us that we are more than conquerors through Him who loves us.
We discuss the radical idea that our identity is rooted in being loved by God, and how truly believing this can change how we approach life. From mundane frustrations like a bad hair day or a parking ticket to deep, challenging times, understanding our identity in Christ can anchor us in wholeness and security.
Join us as we explore how this profound truth of being fully known and fully loved by God can lead us to true freedom and transform how we live, love, and interact with the world around us.
