How to Come to Grips with the Real You
About this episode
There are three questions everyone, regardless of culture, economic status, or even religious conviction will ask themselves. Who am I? Where do I belong? And what am I supposed to do? Chip shares how you can find answers to those questions and then how to begin applying them in your life today.
Three questions we all ask ourselves:
- Who am I? (Identity)
- Where do I belong? (Security)
- What am I supposed to do? (Significance)
Why is it so hard to answer these questions?
- Genesis 3:8-13
Three obstacles to getting right answers:
- Fear rooted in SHAME.
- Hiding rooted in INSECURITY.
- Blaming rooted in denial.
