We crave an identity. A name. Something that will give us the worth, value, and significance we so desire. But more often than not, we feel the exact opposite. Lost. Insignificant. Worthless. Unidentified.

We convince ourselves that there has to be something more to life because, deep down, we all long to identify with something bigger than ourselves. We try to fill this void with many things – what we do, say, think, wear, who we date…you name it. But it never satisfies us. We never find our true selves.

That’s because the truth of who we really are will never be found in anything this world can offer. It’s in a Person. In the very beginning, God stamped us with His very own identity. He made us in His own image and gave us inherent worth, value, and significance. And even though it was our own sin that separated us from our God-given identity, Jesus came to identify with sinners so that we can be reidentified in Him. When we identify with His death, we are called to live as He did so that we can also identify with His resurrection and eternal life. And when we discover God’s plan behind all this, we realize that He has identified us for a purpose much greater than we could ever imagine.

During this weekend retreat, we will help students uncover the truth that they can have an eternal, fulfilling, and purposeful identity in Christ alone.

Our retreat is located at Fort Bluff Camp in Dayton, TN. The cost is $135 per student and is open to students in 7-12 grade.If you have any questions, please contact Micah Whitaker at mwhitaker@stevensstreet.org.
