Summary
As we hit the middle of our week on honesty, today we’re going to explore how being truly honest, or living fully known, is critical to experiencing fullness of life. There may be nothing more terrifying to me than being fully known, but I also know there is nothing more liberating than being my full self with those closest to me. May God replace fear with faith today as we experience his grace and love right now.
Our Scripture for today comes from 1 Corinthians 8:3, and today's worship is Hide & Seek by Nikki Moltz.

What started as a daily email devotional in 2015 has grown into a worldwide movement of over 2.6 million men and women connecting with God every day through our app, First15 Worship, Primeros15, our Spanish-language platform, our podcast, and live and virtual events.
That’s millions of people encountering God’s presence — and being used by him to transform our culture.
Today, you can help fuel this movement by becoming a First15 Monthly Partner. The amount you give is up to you — just knowing you’re investing to impact more lives for Christ is what matters. Go to first15.org/monthlypartner to give now.

| 0:49.1 | Welcome to the first of team podcast. Our verse of team podcast. Our verse for today comes from 1 Corinthians 8, verse 3, where Scripture says, but if anyone loves God, |
| 0:58.9 | he is known by God. While we absolutely serve an all-knowing, omnipotent, omnipresent God, |
| 1:09.7 | there's a stark difference between God's knowledge of everything |
| 1:13.3 | and allowing ourselves to be known by Him. |
| 1:17.7 | To be known by God is a two-way street. |
| 1:20.7 | It's a conscious decision to open our hearts to this all-knowing God |
| 1:25.4 | that we might experience Him in even the deepest, most secret |
| 1:30.5 | places of our lives. Galatians 4 8 through 9 says, formerly when you did not know God, |
| 1:39.0 | you were enslaved to those that by nature are not gods. But now that you have come to know God, or rather to be |
| 1:46.8 | known by God, how can you turn back again to the weak and worthless elementary principles of the |
| 1:53.9 | world whose slaves you want to be once more? Being known by God is the birthplace of freedom. When we allow our Creator and Savior |
| 2:05.3 | to truly know us, he brings with him all his power, love, and deliverance. Only when we allow him to know the |
| 2:15.1 | wounds of our past, do we position ourselves to receive his healing. Only when we allow him to know the wounds of our past, do we position ourselves to receive his |
| 2:19.4 | healing? Only when we discover that he cries, mourns, laughs, and celebrates with us, will our |
| 2:27.6 | hearts be founded on the reality of true relationship with him. Your God doesn't just want to teach you, leave you, empower you, or use you. |
| 2:39.0 | He wants to know you. |
| 2:41.0 | You don't have to go through this life on your own. |
