Identity in Christ
Matt, Derek, and Alastair discuss whether the category of "identity in Christ" is helpful.
Is it useful to talk about finding our identity in Christ? Is that the language that the Scripture uses? How do our modern and post-modern ideas of identity thin out our understanding of self? Derek, Matt, and Alastair tackle these sticky issues with their signature tenacity and panache.
