Welcome back to the Effective Ministry Podcast!
The first in a three part series on Identity, Sexuality and Gender, in this episode, Al James sits down with Simon Swadling to explore the phrase 'finding your identity in Christ.' They discuss the pressures young people face around identity, why the phrase might be more harmful than helpful, and its lack of biblical backing. Simon shares his thoughts on how the phrase can promote individualism and a disconnect between our spiritual and physical lives. The alternative is to focus on building deep, meaningful relationships with Jesus and finding new ways to talk about our worth and identity.
Simon is a Children's Minister at Summer Hill Anglican, as well as working for Living Faith and Single Minded.
You can access his writing and reflection on identity and other things at his Substack.
