Who Am I?
Such a question is far more than just a philosophical one. Instead, the question goes right to the core of our individual struggles to define our selves apart from the labels our lives have created for us. Who am I apart from my profession? Who am I apart from my prosperity? Who am I apart from my relationships? Who am I apart from the person I've spent a lifetime becoming?
In
God's Call to Be: When Being Precedes Doing
, acclaimed pastor and author Al Cadenhead Jr., helps us to peel back the layers of our selves to discover the beings that God intended us to be. "The place to begin," Cadenhead writes, "is to claim that I am convinced that at the center of my soul is life, not life that is determined by the beating of my heart, but life that comes to me by the Creator God who gives to us the small, but important, piece of His divine image. We may be created out of clay, but through that clay runs just enough of the divine image to make us always long for Him."
God's Call to Be
will help you rediscover a sense of peace in your life through your own natural and spiritual connections to God.
AL CADENHEAD JR. is Senior Pastor of Providence Baptist Church in Charlotte, North Carolina. He is also the author of
