Summary

For the last day of our weeklong focus on being the child of God, we’re looking at how our status as God’s child can never been taken away from us.

May God give you confidence and joy today in your new identity in him. And may you see how powerful his sacrificial love is today as we make space to see and live out our identity as eternal children of a good God.

Our Scripture for today comes from John 10:28. Today's worship is Father of Lights by Elevation Worship.

Thanks for listening to the First15 podcast. The end of July is fast approaching, so I wanted to reach out with a quick reminder about the $216,584 summer initiative. Reaching this goal by July 31st will help produce new printed books this year and next to help believers connect with God more deeply; produce a children’s version of First15 to help the next generation learn more about Jesus; and produce new Guided Prayers.

So click the link in the show notes or go to supportfirst15.org to help First15 continue offering free resources that offer life change for people around the world.

I can’t thank you enough for all of your prayers and support as we continue seeking God this year! Have a wonderful rest of your day, and may God bless you as you seek him.
