Summary

Introduction

Have you noticed how much of our identity is based on relationships? For example, I am a husband, a (dog) father, an uncle, a corps officer, and so on. My relationships help to define who I am.

We Are Adopted into God's Family

Some of your relationships show you how to find your identity in Christ. Paul tells us that God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family. When we become a Christian, we are adopted into the family of other believers, and we live that out in our local church family. They help show you how to find your identity in Christ.

God has adopted us as his children. He has brought us into his family and made us all heirs along with Jesus. The church family you worship with each week are all related to God through Christ. God longs to have a relationship with each one of us, and he wants us to learn to love each other too.
