Is “Who I Am” determined by what I feel or what I've done? “If any man is in Christ he is a new creation.” 2 Corinthians 5:17 We are excited to share Drew's fresh take on walking in our Christian identity. After a long process of allowing Jesus to make 2 Cor 5:17 a reality in his life, Drew imparts biblical wisdom through a pastoral perspective on this topic. This episode is for you, whether or not you're impacted by LGBTQ concerns. We believe you will be encouraged and gain valuable insight for your soul to be anchored in Christ's identity for your life.

In this episode, we discuss how the church may be creating obstacles for those who are struggling with their identity & gender. Do we as the church make accommodations for certain sinful practices over others? We pray for humility for all of us as we move towards removing those obstacles that hinder discipleship.
