Your Journey to Yes

Who Am I? Who does Christ Say I Am? How does my identity influence how I live? These and other questions are discussed in The Gospel of Yes by Mike Glenn. Here are a few quotes from a chapter on our Christian journey:

"the faith pilgrimage begins with God's declaration of who you really are and why he made you."

"Believers need other believers to encourage us, confront us when necessary, and to remind us both of who we are and whose we are."

"The more fully you know your yes, the more you will understand and appreciate the uniqueness of who you are. Knowing that your yes was given only to you will free you to pursue your destiny without concern for how it might compare to anyone else's calling. You are the only one who can pursue the unique yes that God gave to you."
