In this episode of Scripture in Black and White, hosts Anthony, Bobby and Michelle dive into the topic of identity from a scriptural perspective. They acknowledge the importance of having a Christian identity in the current society full of ambiguity. They also discuss the impact of culture and societal expectation on one's identity illustrated through the story of Moses from the Book of Exodus. Joined by Michelle Eagle, one of the discipleship ministers at Harpeth Christian Church, they share insights on the dynamic of identity in light of both gender and race, as well as the struggles individuals face regarding their sense of self. The conversation will seek to highlight how grounding ourselves in who God says we are can provide the stability and clarity we need, bringing stability where identity is often a moving target.
