Cultural Idols - Identity

In this week’s podcast, Mr. Clement and Mrs. Massey begin a mini series on cultural idols ingrained in our culture. This conversation is based off of a talk given by Michael Keller, a pastor in New York City at Redeemer Lincoln Square where he shares about five cultural idols (identity, freedom, happiness, power and history) and how they interact with our identity as Christians.

Today, the focus is "identity" and the concept that, "you have to be true to yourself.” They give some examples from culture where you can see this and discuss potential side effects of this mentality on our mental and emotional health. Finally, they talk about our identity as Christians and the biblical framework for understanding who we are in Christ.
