Identity Matters: Christ Alone

In a world deeply divided and confused around issues of sexuality and gender, Identity Matters is a response to the needs of Christian schools, youth groups and churches grappling with these difficult issues.

Identity Matters: Christ Alone is first and foremost an exploration of Identity from a Christian perspective. Students will develop a biblical foundation to understand gender, sexuality, career, marriage, meaning and life through this lens. The conclusion will be that for Christians, Identity is built on Christ Alone.
