Do You Have a Broken Identity Without Even Realizing It?

What if the way you see yourself isn’t the way God sees you? Could you be living with a broken identity—one shaped by past wounds, failures, or false beliefs—without even realizing it?

In this powerful conversation, host Cecily Lachapelle sits down with Chris Tower to unpack his personal journey of discovering how deeply his identity had been fractured. He thought he knew who he was—until God revealed the truth. Chris shares how the fear of failure, self-doubt, and performance-based worth kept him trapped in a false sense of self. But through scripture, God's love, and intentional pursuit of truth, he found healing and restoration.
