WHO AM I? Our primary sense of identity influences how we respond to present and upcoming national and global events, some potentially frightening. As an American Christian whose primary citizenship, identity and loyalty are in the Kingdom of God, I find myself observing our world’s chaos at somewhat of a distance because, while it can…

Jesus set the tone for what His authentic followers should expect in life. First, He made it clear that we must choose between Him and the world. We will love, set the eye of our heart upon, and pursue one or the other as the source of our identity and fulfillment. That was “black and…
