Show Notes

Our culture tells us we can create our own identity any way we want. But Scripture tells us our identity comes from God, who created us in his image, and recreates us by the power of the gospel. Part of our new identity is as “servants of the Lord.” New Testament scholar Matt Harmon points us to the important theme of “The Servant of the Lord” in scripture and how we who follow Jesus, “the servant par excellence,” can find our true identity.
