Every day we are being told who and what we are supposed to be. Empirical research estimates that 95% of people in the U.S. do not know who they are. The result? This affects communication and relationships, causing us to be vulnerable to the influence of what is around us, instead of secure in who we really are. This little book can be life-changing, as the clinically proven, Biblical principles are applied to our lives. Who Am I? is a journey to self-discovery and personal freedom, overcoming fears, anxieties, and those feelings of inadequacy and “being stuck” as we begin to truly realize who we were created to be.
