Identity—New Creation pt.1

In Identity—New Creation, Part 1, Pastor Brad unpacks Paul’s powerful message that the cross of Christ doesn’t just save us—it transforms us. Through the story of Augustine’s conversion, we see the struggle between wanting forgiveness without surrender and how genuine faith demands transformation. Paul reminds us that the love of Christ compels us to live not for ourselves but for Him who died and was raised. This message challenges us to stop evaluating ourselves and others by worldly standards—appearance, status, or success—and instead view life through the lens of the cross. Christ’s death changes everything: it redefines our purpose, reshapes our perspective, and redirects our lives toward Him.
