The Me I Want to Be - on Another Unique Day (1/11/11)


Today is another unique day (1/11/11) ...

... a good day to be the "me" I was created by God to be!


This past Sunday we started a series of messages at Sonrise on "The Me I Want to Be." Scott Greene did a masterful job of leading off our new series with this message. (You can also listen to this on iTunes by searching "Sonrise Church Fort Wayne")

The premise of this series is that each one of us is created as a unique individual - with unique ways to grow in our relationship with God and with others. In fact, one of the goals for this series is ... becoming God's best version of you!

As John Ortberg notes in his book, "The Me I Want to Be" there are some counterfeit "me's" we sometimes choose:

  • the "me" I pretend to be
  • the "me" I think I should be
  • the "me" other people want me to be
  • the "me" I'm afraid God wants
  • the "me" that fails to be

But the best version of me is ...

  • the "me" I'm meant to be!

I look forward to teaching the second week of this series at our Fort Wayne Southwest Campus this Sunday.

Come grow with us!
