Sarris Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 58 minutes Release date: January 11, 2022 Genres: Christianity Publisher's Summary: In the cross, we discover not only who God is, but who we are made to be. Who are we? This is one of the oldest questions, and the bottom-line answer is that we are created in the image of God. But when we ask what it means to live in the image of God, we cannot forget the cross. After all, God came, took on our likeness, and died on the cross. So what does it mean to live in the image of a God who is willing to die on a cross? Though the cross is a well-known symbol in Western society, we are not prone to think of the cross as the key to our identity. Yet to discover the heart of God, and therefore who we are to be as his image bearers, it is to the cross that we must turn. The journey of The Cross-Shaped Life takes listeners into the story of God from creation to salvation, but it culminates in Paul's words found in Philippians 2:5–11. It's in these few verses that listeners will discover that though our Western culture tells us that in order to find ourselves we must continue to acquire more prestige, power, and possessions, the truth is that we only discover who we truly are when we live lives of humility, service, and sacrifice on behalf of others.
