You Are My Beloved Child With Who I Am Well Pleased | Behold Season 1 | Season Finale

Father Ed closes us out on season one of Behold by summarizing what we have dived deeper into this summer: our relationship, identity, and mission (RIM) as Christians. We share in that Sonship that Jesus experienced with His Father. And we also can say, I am the beloved son or I am the beloved daughter of God, and he is well pleased with me. From this identity we can be on mission to be disciples and make disciples of Christ. We invite you to take part in season 1 of Behold. A content series exploring our true identity as beloved sons and daughters of God, using the model of relationship identity, and mission. We begin with our relationship with God, which tells us what our true identity is and how our mission flows from that understanding.

As The Father Sent Me So I Send You | Behold Season 1 | Ep. 12

Jesus said to them again in John's Gospel. Peace be with you as the Father has sent me. So I send you. Everything we do should be a response to the truth of who we are. And everything we do should be rooted in and flow out of our identity as a son or daughter. In other words, we experience fulfillment and true joy. When everything we do, every part of our lives is centered around our identity as beloved sons and daughters of the father who is crazy in love with each one of us. So relationship with God first. Then comes mission. But how do we know what that mission is, where that mission is, who that mission is supposed to be with? We invite you to take part in season 1 of Behold.
