My Identity IN CHRIST
My identity is IN CHRIST. I am made in His image, and I am being conformed into the image of God, our Father who is in Heaven. I am a good branch from the Good Tree, the Tree of Life. I am a Child of God, His Beloved. God is love; I am love. I am the Bride of Christ and a valued part of His Body. I am Jesus' Sheep, and I hear His voice. I have been translated into the Kingdom of His Beloved, Jesus. According to the Word of God, like you, I have the mind of Christ, and I stand before the Throne of Grace with boldness and confidence that He hears my prayers and supplies all of my needs. I am chosen, called, and sent to make disciples of His Kingdom, so I am a disciple maker, a fisher of men. Keep in mind, all of this happened before the foundation of the world. I am eternal IN CHRIST, forever His. Jesus said, I am a citizen of Heaven and an Ambassador of Christ, and I dwell with Him and in Him, and He in me. Therefore, I am a vessel of Christ filled with love.
My UNIQUE identity IN CHRIST--the identity Jesus gave me: "I am a truth-telling, foot-washing rebel serving the Kingdom of God as a pioneering ambassador giant slayer, a restorer of families, communities, and the local church!"

Craig’s Vision:
"In Christ, I have found strength for all things. Apart from Him, I am nothing, but through Him, I am a 'Pioneering Giant Slayer,' called to protect, restore, and reconcile families and communities with the eternal love of God. Each day, as I lay down my life and pick up my cross, I am reminded that my qualifications come not from worldly achievements but from my willingness to confess my weaknesses and Jesus' sufficiency, as He strengthens me to depend solely on His Grace."
"Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come. Now all these things are from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation, namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation. Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were making an appeal through us; we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him." 2 Corinthians 5:17-20
