You Are Not Your Past: How Grace Redefines Who You Are

Send us Fan Mail

Have you ever struggled to see yourself the way God sees you? In this opening episode of our Ephesians series, we explore Paul’s greeting to the believers at Ephesus and uncover life-changing truths about our identity in Christ.

Paul calls ordinary Christians “saints” and “faithful in Christ Jesus,” titles that don’t depend on performance but flow from our union with Christ. Just as a bride takes her husband’s name instantly at marriage, we receive a new name and identity at salvation.

We’ll see how grace always comes before peace, why “being in Christ” means participation rather than mere imitation, and how our faithfulness rests on Christ’s faithfulness in us. If God could transform Saul the persecutor into Paul the apostle and raise up saints in a city filled with idolatry, He can do the same in your life.

This episode will help you rest in who God already says you are instead of striving to become someone you think you should be.

Join us for this journey through Ephesians, and share this episode with a friend who needs encouragement in their identity in Christ.
