Who am I when I’m free and why does it even matter? This is the question that has spurred me on for years now. If you’ve ever wondered why there is a gap between who you are and who you were meant to be, join me on the journey.
Episode 13: The Mosaic
So far this podcast series has focused on two important questions that each person needs to answer to live into their place in God’s Kingdom: They are “Who am I?” and “What do I have to offer?”
But there is one more question to be asked that is just as important as the first two. Listen in to find out.
