Summer Series Countdown: Who am I? My Identity in Christ

The end of summer looms during these final days of August.  Even though the calendar has yet to mark the beginning of fall, for many it has arrived.  School is back in session.  Fall sports fill the air.

And here at the blog, we enjoy the final post in our Summer Series Countdown.  Please join me as we reveal the #1 all-time most popular post

Who am I? My Identity in Christ

Reminder – a person or thing that causes one to remember.

I love reminders.  It is so easy for me to forget things (even important things) in my much- too- overcrowded mind.

Recently I’ve been enjoying reminders of just exactly who I am – in Christ.

From sermons to devotions to Pinterest boards: the reminders just keep popping up.

In case you suffer from the much- too- overcrowded mind also, I thought I would share some of my reminders with you.

  1. I can never get enough of these reminders! Keeping a Biblical perspective of my identity makes all the difference in how I respond to life. Thank you for sharing, Deborah!

  2. What a great list. Here is a great bible study. Let us not forget our identity in Him.

  3. Deborah, this is a wonderful list! I’ve been writing down the names of God as I read through my Bible for the last couple of years, but I’ve never thought about doing that with the ways that believers are described in Scripture. I’ll need to remember that! Glad to connect with you this week through Grace & Truth …
