Hidden Faces: Discovering our True Identity in Christ

This is a book about discovering the true you. Have you ever taken a good hard look at how you define yourself? Are you allowing your past, your emotions, or even the blessings from God to become your identity? How do you think it would change your life if you began to define yourself through the lens of Christ and lay aside the different faces we put on each day? Hidden Faces explores how Jesus has come to give us a new identity. It is not one that is determined by all the things we fill our lives with, and not by the circumstances by all the things we fill our lives with, and not by the circumstance we find ourselves in, but to whom we belong. Hidden Faces delves deep into the many areas where we try and compensate for the brokenness we carry. Through personal and Bible stories we will explore how Jesus makes all the difference when it comes to our identity.Whether we're aware of it or not, finding our true identity is at the core of our search for meaning as human beings. In Hidden Faces, pastor and author Joshua Trombley points to Jesus as the lens through which we perceive our true selves. I look forward to sharing this book with people in my congregation who are journeying toward self-discovery while acknowledging their need for more of God. - Ben Wright, Pastor of Community Pentecostal Church, Stirling, ONFrom my clinical experience as a psychotherapist as well as my pastoral experience, I have found that issues of identity are at the root of many problems with which we as humans struggle. Joshua Trombley has created an excellent resource to address issues that pertain to identity, particularly finding our identity in Christ and getting to the heart of matters that cause us to doubt God's truth, hurt ourselves and keep others at a distance. I enjoy Joshua's relatable, funny and real style of writing. I definitely recommend this resource for personal reading or small groups.- Dan Watterworth, B.Th., M.Div., R.P.Church Planters are my heroes and Josh is no exception. His writing is witty and to the point. In "Hidden Faces" Josh helps us to peel off the masks we spend our lives hiding behind. The refreshing blend of familiar biblical narrative and personal stories gives "Hidden Faces" an easy rhythm that you'll find yourself pondering and chuckling through.- Denn Guptill, Lead/ Founding Pastor Cornerstone Wesleyan ChurchAuthor of - Penn of Denn: The World Through Denn Coloured Glasses.
