True Identity: Finding Significance and Freedom Through Who You Are in Christ Paperback - 2017

by John C. Majors

All teens wrestle with the question "Who am I?" and wonder, "What makes me special?" This compassionate book provides wise, biblical answers, helping teens to discover who they really are by emphasizing their identity in Christ above gender, social sphere, and all other ways culture defines them.


From the publisher

Teens' Guide to Identity from FamilyLife

All teens wrestle with the question "Who am I?" and wonder, What makes me special?
Though these questions linger for life, they are most intense in the teen years, where confusion, awkwardness, and a desperate grab for identity reign. So how does a young person answer these critical questions? Where do young men and women find their significance, worth, and value?

True Identity is perfect for parents and youth workers to give to the teenagers (14-16) in their lives to help them in their journey. Drawing on experiences and wisdom from a wide array of experts, the book provides compassionate answers to help teens discover who they really are, emphasizing their identity in Christ above all other ways our culture defines them. As the book walks teens through the steps to make their faith their own, it highlights healthy independence and God-honoring relationships.

The Passport2Identity curriculum launched in April 2016, and True Identity is its trade book companion.

From the rear cover

Jock. Nerd. Popular. Band Geek.

We all get labeled. Sometimes in a good way; other times, not so much. But these labels don't describe the real you--your TRUE IDENTITY. This book will help you think about what--and who--really defines you.

As you adventure into a life of greater independence, responsibility, and maturity, there is one thing you need to know: You are defined by your place in a greater plan than you can imagine. Not by society, your gender, your family background, or your friend group--but by Someone you can always count on.

Discover who you are meant to be and find the confidence to live out your true identity!

"This book is bursting with wisdom. . . . It's fun to read [and] chock-full of engaging stories."--Dr. Owen Strachan, author of Risky Gospel

"If you know a teenager, you'll want to get this book in their hands. It will help them navigate the tricky waters they face today and build an identity that will last a lifetime."--Dennis Rainey, founder and CEO of FamilyLife

An ideal companion book to FamilyLife's Passport2Identity curriculum
