What Defines You?
Manage episode 504347453 series 3671831
Your worth isn’t tied to performance, success, or failure—it’s anchored in Christ. In this episode, discover the unshakable identity God gives His children and how it frees you from striving.
What defines you?
For many of us, the answer feels tied to performance—our job, our achievements, or even the roles we carry. But Scripture says our identity is far deeper and far more secure.
In today’s episode, we’ll look at Bethany Hamilton’s story after a shark attack at age 13 changed her life forever. Her journey reminds us that true identity isn’t in headlines or achievements—it’s found in being a child of God.
Main Scripture:
2 Corinthians 5:17 – “Anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!”
By the end of this episode, you’ll discover:
- Why your worth isn’t tied to performance or success
- How Christ gives you a new identity that can’t be shaken
- A practical way to step into that identity today
Today’s Challenge:
Finish this sentence out loud: “I am not defined by ____. I am defined by being a child of God.” Fill in the blank with whatever you’re tempted to let define you—and let God’s Word reset your heart.
