Gary Molander – Week 3

Finding Living Hope in An Upside-Down World

Have you ever asked yourself this question, then answered honestly?


If I was no longer ______________, then who would I be?


1. We are always being formed.

As you come to Him, the living Stone - rejected by humans but chosen by God and precious to Him...you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
1 Peter 2:4-5

For in Scripture, it says:
“See, I lay a stone in Zion, a chosen and precious cornerstone,
and the one who trusts in Him will never be put to shame.”
Now to you who believe, this stone is precious.
But to those who do not believe,
“The stone the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone,” and
“A stone that causes people to stumble
and a rock that makes them fall.”
They stumble because they disobey the message -
which is also what they were destined for.
1 Peter 2:6-8


You are not disqualified from the future that God has planned for you.


2. We are always being formed into who we already are.

But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation,
God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him
who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.
Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God.
Once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.
1 Peter 2:9-10

So, in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith.
Galatians 3:26

Reflection Questions:

Whose voice is defining my identity?



These days, how is God forming you into who He already says you are?
