Who am I?

This summer brought the culmination of a three-plus year process during which the Church of the Lutheran Brethren, our extended family of churches, adopted a position paper entitled "Statement on Human Persons and Sexuality."

This paper was a response to the crisis of identity that our world has been experiencing in recent years.

In that paper, we confess:

God gives identity to human persons in three ways:

A. He creates human persons in his image.

B. He creates human persons as male and female in his image.

C. He invites human persons as sinners to also find their identity as redeemed members of the Body of Christ.

Over the coming weeks, we will explore what God says about human identity. From discussions on gender to citizenship and the role of the church in identity formation, I think you'll be blessed as we go on this journey together, asking the question "Who am I?"
