How do you define yourself? From our careers to our roles as spouses or parents to our personality types to even our sexuality, we lean on easy-to-apply labels to talk about and understand ourselves. But sometimes those labels become masks to cling to and hide behind. What happens when they shift or fall apart-who are we without them? John and Angel Beeson know the truth that can set you free from this identity trap: a fulfilling understanding of self can only be found in the unchangeable and nonnegotiable reality of who God says you are. This husband-and-wife team explores ten identities that masquerade as truth, challenging you to trade those labels for the ones Christ offers. Along the way, they explain why true identity matters, how our masks can suffocate us, and how substitute identities can become idolatry They share real struggles from real people just like you. They also include a comprehensive index of our identities in Christ, both as individuals and as the collective church. Find freedom in discovering who you really are underneath, and trade in your masks for an identity that can never be taken away.…

Seeking fulfilment, many Christians turn to identities that promise to give their lives meaning: profession, roles as spouse or parent, personality types, even sexuality--anything that can be held up to others as the empowering core of who they are. But when these new labels don’t give them any real foundation for hope, they end up feeling disappointed, directionless, and defeated. Those false identities turn out to be only sand.
John and Angel Beeson have seen this problem again and again in their respective roles as pastor and counselor. And they want searching Christians to know the truth: a fulfilling understanding of self can only be found by rooting one's identity in the unchangeable and nonnegotiable understanding of who we were created to be.
This husband-and-wife team considers ten identities that masquerade as truth and challenge readers to trade those labels for the ones Christ offers. They explain why true identity matters, how our masks can suffocate us, and how substitute identities can become idolatry. They share real struggles from real people. And they offer hope in a comprehensive index of our identities in Christ, both individual and the collective identity of the church.
