You’ve been told to do whatever it takes to fit in—even if that means becoming someone else. You’ve heard you will be lovable if you can only meet the right criteria of likes, looks, and labels. You’ve been offered identities that segregate you from others, conditioning you to look down on others in pride or up at them in envy.
Stop listening to that voice. It doesn’t care about you. It doesn’t even know you.
How do you discover who you really are? Ask Jesus. Jesus knew people’s deepest insecurities and darkest sins. Yet he also knew their created purpose and redemptive potential. He knows yours too.
Identity invites you to explore who you are according to Jesus. Anthony Walker and Michelle Eagle are wise, compassionate guides as they walk you through what Jesus says about you—and the dignity and transformation that come from walking in your true identity.
Anthony and Michelle expertly tackle the issue of our day.

Grateful for this encouraging book. Very hopeful and inspiring stories. Understanding identity in Christ, and the love we have in Jesus. Identity in Christ is something I want to never forget. This is a great book to refocus your understanding of your identity because Jesus loved us to die for our sins, and the truth that He can give us His hope and our identity can be as being redeemed. There is a lot of freedom in this. Breaking off any lies of the evil one is a beautiful thing.
Identity is a huge issue for all of today. Who am I? Walker and Eagle answer this question and more through God’s eyes. My identity is grounded in how God has created me. Lots of examples of people who struggled with their identity and Biblical references. Easy to read and yet eye-opening. Suggest it for everyone to read.
