In this transformative episode of the Shepnaz Podcast, we delve into one of life's most profound questions: "Who am I?" Join us as we explore the common misconceptions about identity that many of us grapple with — believing we are defined by what we do, what people say about us, or what we have. Drawing from the powerful example of Jesus' temptation in the wilderness (Matthew 4:1-11), we uncover the truth about our identity as beloved children of God.
We'll discuss how Jesus resisted the temptations of the enemy by standing firm in His belovedness, a lesson that is crucial for us today. Inspired by Henri Nouwen's "Life of the Beloved," we will break down the journey of becoming the Beloved into four key steps: being Taken (Chosen), Blessed, Broken, and Given.
Discover how to claim your choseness, recognize your blessedness, embrace your brokenness, and give yourself to others in love. Learn practical ways to remind yourself and others of our belovedness and to thank God for this incredible gift. Tune in to find out how to build your life on the unshakable foundation of being deeply known and loved by God.
Whether you're struggling with feelings of inadequacy, comparison, or simply seeking a deeper understanding of your identity in Christ, this episode offers hope, encouragement, and a path to true fulfillment. Join us on this spiritual journey to becoming who we truly are—beloved sons and daughters of God.
