In this week’s episode, Pastor Joe teaches that we were made in the image of God, and we will be unsuccessful in finding out who we are, outside of God. We have so much confusion on truth and identity because we are trying to find it outside of our creator. When we try to look for who we are, we have to look for who He is.
