23.12 Craig Smith - What to Surrender, What to Keep (Part 1)

In today's episode, Craig launches into his sixth and final session in this Indigenous Faith teaching series, which was presented live in August 2022.  He closes his series by turning to the practical aspects of how to live biblically healthy lives in the context of our Indigenous cultures and communities.  But not before he spent five sessions in laying out a biblical foundation to do the practical exercises.  Before Craig dives into the practical, he had to go to the Scriptures one more time to present some very important biblical teaching on the believer's Identity and Significance.  He uses Paul's letter to the Philippians to present these incredibly important truths that are key to a biblically healthy life no matter the cultural context you were raised in.  Fully understanding the Apostle Paul's culture, history, and familial reputation is set in stark contrast to the new identity and significance he now enjoys in his relationship with Jesus Christ.  The transformation in Paul's life is the same transformation God is desiring to do in the lives of all the followers of Jesus from the day we are saved to the day God takes us home.  Don't miss this very important part of the Indigenous Faith series, dear friend!  Without it, we will constantly be struggling in our personal walk with the Lord.  These upcoming weeks are crucial to the rest of this important series!
