It would seem in our current Western

culture that the Christian faith is often

treated like a team jersey: Something

to put on to show your support on

game day but unsuitable for all

occasions. The idea that faith in Jesus

affects a person’s day-to-day choices

seems increasingly naive and outdated

in today’s hyper-individualized society.

Developing a sticky faith in Jesus

requires that we believe and trust

that Jesus is who the Bible says he is

and that he did what the Bible says he did.

But how do we develop and nurture a faith in Jesus that is sticky? It begins with a sticky identity. We know what the Bible says about Jesus, but what does it say about you? “Who am I?” is one of the most important questions a person will ask -- and they may spend their entire life trying to answer. If you want to develop a sticky faith in your own life and help others around you do the same, you must come to “grip” with your identity -- who you are in Christ Jesus.
