Publisher's Summary
Who are you? What defines you? What makes you, you?
In the past an individual's identity was more predictable than it is today. Life's big questions were basically settled before you were born: where you'd live, what you'd do, the type of person you'd marry, your basic beliefs, and so on. Today personal identity is a do-it-yourself project. Constructing a stable and satisfying sense of self is hard amidst relationship breakdowns, the pace of modern life, the rise of social media, multiple careers, social mobility, and so on. Ours is a day of identity angst.
In the Known by God Audio Lectures, part of the Biblical Theology for Life series, Brian Rosner explores three biblical angles on the question of personal identity: being made in the image of God, being known by God, and being in Christ. Rosner shows that rather than knowing ourselves, being known by God is the key to personal identity. It gives our fleeting lives significance, provokes in us humility, supplies comfort when things go wrong, and offers clear moral direction for living.
