    Servant of Christ- Romans 1:1
    "What do I look like? Your servant?"  Ever heard that one?  Or better yet, have you ever said it?  Servanthood often gets a bad rap in our culture.  However, servanthood in the 1st century was a bit different, and to be a servant in Christ's Kingdom is the greatest position of all.  We are servants of Christ.  Today we take a closer look at what that means.

    What does it mean to be a "Child of the Father"?  Is it about what we are to inherit as we are co-heirs with Christ?  It is about how close of a relationship we can have with Him? Or is it about identifying ourselves as a child of God and then acting like it?  Take your pick!  Or better yet, take all three.

    I am a Follower of Jesus- Matthew 4:18-25
    Do we follow Jesus like the world follows celebrities on Twitter, checking in once in a while with what He may have on His mind?  Or do we follow Him at the level that Jesus gave to His followers? Come, Follow me!" Jesus told his disciples.  But what does it mean to be a follower of Jesus?  Today we continue in our series on our identity in Christ by looking at what Scripture shows us about following Jesus.

    EASTER- Forgiveness is the Pathway to Relationship
    "He was handed over to die because of our sins, and he was raised to life to make us right with God" (Romans 4:25).  Because of His desire to enjoy a relationship with us, God provided the means of forgiveness  through the work of Christ on the cross.  But forgiveness is not the destination.  It is the pathway to relationship, because Jesus was "raised to life to make us right with God."  Today we celebrate the victory of Jesus over death, which opened the way for us to be right with God, a deep and abiding relationship, for all who would receive Him.

    Created in the Image of God- Genesis 1:27
    We continue our study in our identity in Christ by looking at what it means to be created in the image of God, specifically, that we are creatures with limits and accountability.  We live in a nation that celebrates freedom and independence, but if that is how we view our relationship to God, we have missed the mark considerably.  As created beings, we are dependent upon and accountable to our Creator; a very healthy and appropriate place to be.

    Identity in Christ- 2 Corinthians 5:17
    Our identity will determine our values and drive our actions.  What are you identify in or with?  If you are a follower of Christ, our identity is defined and it runs deep.  Today we start a new series that probes some of the depths of who we are in Christ.
