LIving By Being

1. BEING (Identity)

Who you are

  • Rooted in identity (in Christ, purpose, calling) 
  • Determines everything else downstream 

Genesis 1:27 – “God created man in His own image…”
2 Corinthians 5:17 – “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation…”

Key Truth:
You don’t do to become—you are, therefore you do.

2. ROLES (Assignment)

What you are called to function as

  • Roles flow out of your identity 
  • You can have multiple roles (leader, parent, steward, servant) 

Genesis 2:15 – Man placed in the garden to tend and keep it
Ephesians 4:11-12 – Different roles (apostles, prophets, etc.)

 Key Truth:
Roles are expressions of identity in specific contexts.
