I Am Participant S Guide

Understand that your past does not define who you are, that your fears and insecurities can be replaced with the truth of God's Word, and that when you truly encounter God, you will discover who you are. Are you satisfied with your life? Do you ever feel lost, insecure, disconnected? Do you ever feel like you need more power or just more of God? In this five-part teaching Matt Fry shows you how to unlock God's power and purpose for your life by discovering who you are in Him. By exploring the seven "I Am" statements Jesus made in the Book of John, Fry unpacks key truths that will help you discover who He is and ultimately reveal your true identity in Christ. This participant's guide is designed for individual or small-group study and should be read in conjunction with the book I Am by Matt Fry (sold separately).
