Whether through vocation, family, marriage, political party, gender, economic status, or even what grocery store we frequent, we lean toward these identity substitutes, beginning from childhood. As a counselor and pastor, John and Angel walk with people who wear masks and are engaged in identity battles every day. In Trading Faces, they bring personal experiences and life stories, so readers will know they are not alone.
In Trading Faces, the Beesons deep dive into ten identities that masquerade as truth, and give readers help and hope that they exchange those false labels for true identities. From shame to good works to individuality to careers, they leave no identity stone unturned in the life of the reader. Each of the chapters end in a heart -felt prayer. Trading Faces also includes other helpful resources, like a Now What? section helping readers know what to do next, and an appendix, Our Biblical Identities, that breaks down who we are collectively, and what we are called to as believers.
