Transformed into Fire: Discovering Your True Identity as God's Beloved

There are moments in every Christian’s life when we hit a “spiritual glass ceiling.” In those frustrating moments, we wonder, why do others experience love and intimacy with God but not me? The remedy is not a checklist of actions but a personal, powerful call to come home, to come out of the cold, to forsake the false self―our old identity―driven by pursuit of security, esteem, and power.

Transformed into Fire explores the profound spiritual depths found within the routine of daily life through thediscovery of our true selves in Christ. You are invited to journey toward the warm embrace of the Father where being and doing, prayer and action become a fiery response to His intimate love.
