Success. The world tells us to believe that success is defined by what we do or by the things we own, but Jesus came to earth to show us a different way to live success. He flipped the order. He taught us to know first WHO we are, and to let our True Identity define our Success. Think about it. When Jesus died, he didn’t have a job, he didn’t own a home, or even a car. He alienated most of the important people around him, two of his friends betrayed him—and most of his other disciples quickly disappeared when he was arrested. Despite it all, if you look for a “Top 10 Most Successful People” in history, you will ALWAYS find Jesus on the list. Why? Jesus understood that success came through living in relationship. He knew the way to the top was to serve , and even to sacrifice , his life for his friends. 5 Stages of Identity: Success Reclaimed redefines success through the exploration of Jesus’ every day life. Jesus modeled valuable lessons for us in each stage of identity. His actions help us identify the pitfalls, give us strategies for the challenges, and provide us with tools for how to navigate the route through earthly success and failure. When we apply Jesus’ practical lessons to our lives, we discover ourselves reaching for a success, which ultimately satisfies the deepest longings of our hearts.
