Identity—God’s Children

Oct 19, 2025    Brad Hudson

In this message, Pastor Brad explores the powerful truth of what it means to be adopted into God’s family. Drawing from Paul’s teaching in Romans 8, Brad parallels the story of Octavius’ adoption by Julius Caesar with the believer’s spiritual adoption through Christ. Once bound by fear and sin, we are now led by the Holy Spirit, embraced by the Father, and made heirs of His kingdom.

This message calls believers to live out their identity as God’s children — dependently following the Spirit’s lead, distinctly putting sin to death, and confidently resting in the assurance of their adoption.

Discover how the Spirit of adoption replaces fear with intimacy, transforms bondage into belonging, and reminds us that in Christ, we are not slaves, we are sons and daughters of the King.
