Who we believe we are shapes how we think, the choices we make, and the lives we live. But too often, we allow past mistakes, insecurities, and experiences to define us rather than embracing who God says we are. Through the stories of Gideon and Lot's wife, we'll explore how our understanding of our identity can either hold us back or open the door to the life God is calling us to live.

As we approach the holidays, a season that can bring old memories, expectations, and struggles to the surface, we're invited to stop letting yesterday make today's decisions. What part of your past is still shaping your future? Consider what it means to lay down those old identities, embrace God's truth about who we are, and take a step forward in faith—living not as who we used to be, but as who God is calling us to become!
