For Christians wanting to better understand identity

Matt Fuller helps show the direction in which fulfilment and happiness is found

You'll see how to live as a Christian in a time of great individualism

Finding happiness has become the most pressing but most elusive drive of our time, but what if we have been looking in all the wrong places (including ourselves)?

Our culture tells us that the way to be happy is to "be true to yourself". It's posted on social media, promoted in adverts, taught in schools and, even, expressed in churches. But what does that mean, and does it actually work?

Matt Fuller explores how true happiness, wholeness and freedom can be found in embracing who God has created us to be; allowing ourselves to be shaped by who the Bible says we are, rather than our own fluctuating feelings, or the voices around us. In the process, this book draws on a broad range of fascinating research and examples to give us a fresh biblical take on some of today's biggest hot-button issues.

By cutting through the confusion and showing us something better, this is a book to help every Christian live with confidence in today's culture.

  • A very current Christian critique of the culture of expressive individualism
  • Connects directly with the experiences and longings of millennial and Gen-Z believers
  • Draws on a fascinating range of examples and research
