Frequently Asked Questions about "Overcoming Identity Crisis"

What inspired Goodnews Obasi-ike to write "Overcoming Identity Crisis"?

The inspiration for the book came unexpectedly as a prompting from God, which felt like an order to create something beneficial for others, even though writing a book wasn't a personal goal initially. This divine nudge, coupled with a desire to help youth, fellow pastor's kids, and individuals feeling lost or that it's too late for them, fueled the journey. The author then diligently researched the process of writing a good book and allowed God to reveal insights and themes along the way.

What are the key pillars or perspectives explored in "Overcoming Identity Crisis"?

The book tackles the concept of identity from four main pillars: psychological research, emotional experiences (shared through personal stories to build connection), religious and spiritual perspectives (tying faith into the discussion), and a broader materialistic standpoint (integrating various life aspects into the understanding of identity).

The book is subtitled "Through the Lens of a 21st Century Pastor's Kid." Is this book only for pastor's kids?

No, while pastor's kids are a primary target audience, the book's themes and principles are designed to resonate with a wider audience. It explores universal questions about purpose, success, and navigating life's pressures.

The chapters are structured intentionally, building upon each other. The initial chapters lay foundational principles, while subsequent chapters delve into deeper concepts.
