BORN TO BE is about our identity in Christ, not because of our effort but because of his love and mercy (Titus 3:5).

In his monumental writing On Loving God, the Great Christian writer, Bernard of Clairvaux, reminded the saints that they owe God not only their first birth but their second as well. Not only did God love us enough to give us life, but also to give us rebirth, new life in him through salvation! We praise God and celebrate the birth and rebirth that he has given to us as unmerited gifts. We seek to discover and rediscover our identity and purpose as daughters and sons of God. We want to explore issues of identity, both individual and corporate. We want to discover intimacy with the God who loves us and seeks us.
