Whether prompted by a particular circumstance or a new season of life, we may find ourselves asking, “Why am I here?” In today’s message, Noah Bates teaches on this question of purpose by first looking the question of identity: Who does God say we are? And once we understand who we are in Christ, what role are we called to fulfill as Christians in this world?

Matthew 5:13-16 (NLT) “You are the salt of the earth. But what good is salt if it has lost its flavor? Can you make it salty again? It will be thrown out and trampled underfoot as worthless. “You are the light of the world—like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden. No one lights a lamp and then puts it under a basket. Instead, a lamp is placed on a stand, where it gives light to everyone in the house.
