We are so grateful to Pastor Dave Lomas and the incredible teachings he's brought to our church during his pastoral residency. Today Pastor Dave spoke to us about identity. Identity matters because all of us live from some core truth. For most of us, our identity is typically anchored in one of three things: what we do, what we have, and what we desire. Our culture tells us our identity is whom we desire sexually. The problem is, all of these fall short. None of these areas are the core truth Jesus wants us to live from. The truest thing about us, as we see in Colossians 3, is that we are in Christ. We are loved by God. Accepted by God. Put in right relationship with God through Jesus, not because of anything we have done but because of the sacrifice Jesus made on our behalf. That is who we are. We belong to God. Our call is to become who we are and to live out that truth.
The quick summary above doesn't come close to covering the depth, the truth, and the power in Pastor Dave's teaching today. We encourage you, if you missed any of Dave's teachings or the lecture, to make time and watch them. We also invite you to sign up for the Grace and Truth class that begins this Wednesday, February 15. You can sign up here.
