Description

Ever been told to “look within” to discover who you really are? Maybe it came in the form of self-help advice, motivational quotes, or even well-meaning encouragement. But here’s the problem: when we look inward for identity, we buy into the very lie keeping us lost.


On this episode of Trade a Lie for a Truth, join Heidi Lee Anderson and Alena Pitts Franklin (actress, vocalist, and author of the devotional God Is) to uncover together the cultural lie that identity starts within... and exchange it for the life-giving truth: before we can know who we are, we must first know who God is.


 


✨ What you’ll discover in this episode:


➖Why the “search within” advice always leaves us empty


➖How Alena personally wrestled with identity and found freedom in Christ ➖The role honesty plays in reshaping our view of God and ourselves ➖How God’s unchanging character transforms our perspective on purpose, talents, and even past mistakes 📖 Scripture Highlight: Ephesians 2:10 – “For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”
