Few would deny that knowing one's identity matters. But how can we truly know who we really are? Culture, family background, successes, and failures all offer competing identities.
For Jesus-followers, what Jesus says matters most. Wouldn't it be amazing if Jesus told us who we really are? Through the Beatitudes he has given us clarity regarding our identity. In this guided study, we see that each Beatitude:
Reveals a reality-not a command
Unpacks a divinely given attribute
Guarantees a spiritual inheritance
Once you realize and joyfully embrace who Jesus says you are, your life will never be the same. You'll experience a freedom you didn't know was possible as you continue to grow in your understanding of all you've been given in Jesus.
This workbook can be used as a nine-week group Bible study. Alternatively, it can be used individually or in one-on-one discipling relationships.
