You

Welcome today to all of our different life churches and those of you in our

Network Church family. We love you all so much. Those joining us from

countries around the world at church online right now. Thank you for being

with us. We believe that it's not an accident that you've joined us

today. We are wrapping up our fourth and final message in the series

of our new book, Alter Ego, based on my new book, Alter Ego,

becoming who God says you are. This is still available. Most of our

life churches today only for half off the cover. After this week,

they're no longer available at our church, but you can find them at

bookstores or online. If you'll notice, Alter for our study,

and this book is spelled ALTAR Alter Ego, and this represents our

Alter throughout history. People of God have knelt down at an

Alter to make a sacrifice or to lay down something significant in an

act of worship to God. Alter Ego, as you know, is what we think about

ourselves. It's our belief system. It's who we think we are.

Unfortunately, so many of us, we think too highly of ourselves.

We have an inflated ego, or we think too lowly of ourselves.

We have a poor and inaccurate view of ourselves. So our goal in this

series is to take our egos, what we think about ourselves, and to

sacrifice who we think we are at the Alter so we can become not who

we think we are, but instead who God says we are.
