Summary

Today we continue our week on the parable of the prodigal son, by looking at the son’s restoration of identity. The way we see ourselves changes our lived experience of every day. And the world around us often sends us a totally different message about who we are than who our Father in heaven says we are.   May God align our perspective with his today, as we apply the restoration of identity from Jesus’ story to our own lives.   Our Scripture for today comes from 1 Peter 2:9, and today's worship is  Graves into Gardens by Elevation Worship feat. Brandon Lake. -- Thanks so much for listening to today’s podcast on restoration of identity.    If you’re looking to spend more time in reflection on who you are in Christ, I want to encourage you to listen to an original First15 worship song called “New.” There’s a link to the video in the description below. Engaging in worship centered around who we are in Christ is a great way to establish a firmer foundation of our new nature in God. So if that’s a need you have, I hope you’ll take some time today to go deeper with God in worship.    Have a wonderful rest of your day, and may God bless you as you seek him.  --   We are so excited to announce our very first First15 Kid’s Devotional book, My Time With God.    Get your copy of First15’s first ever devotional book for kids today!   My Time with God is a 20 day devotional written for young readers, ages 6-12, to help encourage and equip them to establish a lifetime of learning and walking with God through daily scripture reading and reflection.
