The Christian Worldview How The Identity Question “Who am I?” Needs to Be Answered by God, Not Us
GUEST: MARTYN ILES, Executive CEO of Answers in Genesis and author, Who Am I?
What are the first things you would say to describe yourself? One might answer, “I’m an American white male engineer.” Another might say, “I identify as a trans-woman feminist.”
The question being asked is about identity. And the answers most everyone will give are based on self-perception, as if it’s up to each one of us to determine who we are.
While the question “Who Am I?” naturally leads to personal, subjective answers, the far better question is “Who does God say that I am?” That question will lead to an objective, truthful answer with which we can align our thinking and living.
Our guest this weekend is Martyn Iles, who has written a very insightful and perceptive new book titled, Who Am I? Solving the Identity Puzzle.
Previously the co-founder of a law firm specializing in religious freedom cases in Australia, Martyn is now the executive CEO of Answers in Genesis. He’s a young man with a sharp Biblical worldview. He lays out eight puzzle pieces in his book that will ground one’s identity in who God is and who He says we are, rather than the shifting sand of who we think we are or want to be.
We hope you join us for this important discussion about one of the big questions of life.
