The biggest identity problem

The biggest identity problem is the inability to identify Jesus. He’s with “the least of these,” but we don’t recognize Him. He’s present when we gather in His name, but we overlook His reality. He’s knocking on the door of every human heart asking to come in, but we seldom notice His presence. He’s everywhere, but we too often live like He’s nowhere to be found.

Use this Bible verse to help you overcome the big identity problem. “In all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loves us.”


Through the presence and power
Of the risen eternal One
Who loves us,
Christ-followers
Are called to do more
Than merely survive
In this fallen world.
Through Christ in us
We are empowered to thrive
From glory to glory
As flourishing branches
Abounding with fruit
Through direct attachment
And ongoing surrender
To Jesus the living Vine.
In troubles and trials
We are called to overflow
With the New Wine
Of HIs presence.

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!

    Amazing how many scriptures are given to fill in God’s plan for our identity.
