Altar Ego - by Craig Groeschel (Paperback)

About the Book

In "Altar Ego," bestselling author Groeschel reveals that people are not who they think they are. Until people have sacrificed their broken concept of identity, no one will become who they are meant to be.

Book Synopsis

Discover your true identity in Christ.

Many of us live for the approval of others. We let the world decide who we are, or we look to those around us to discover who we think we'd like to be. The problem is that living for what people think of you is the quickest way to forget what God thinks of you.

In Altar Ego, pastor and author of Winning the War in Your Mind Craig Groeschel will show you how to sacrifice your broken ideas of approval-based identity on the altar of God's truth and become who you were meant to be in Christ.

You'll learn how to:

• Expose false labels and selfish motives.
• Live according to God's higher values with a deeper confidence in His calling.
• Trade in your broken ego and unleash your "altar" ego as a living sacrifice to Him.
• Understand how God continuously shapes you into His vision of you.

Once you know your true identity and are growing in Christ-like character, then you can behave accordingly with bold behavior, bold prayers, bold words, and bold obedience.

Altar Ego reveals who God says you are, and then calls you to live up to it. Rather than living a timid, halfhearted, shallow cultural Christianity, you'll boldly live in the confidence of the God who believes in you.
