This small work is a passion project of sorts, a theological experience with the truth of Scripture, as well as, an extension of pastoral ministry. I know I\u2019ll walk through difficult times again; therefore, this book will also serve as a needed reminder to myself and to those who need encouragement in their personal walk with the Lord.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
Left to man alone, we would live to gratify the desires of our flesh. Doing this would mean we will end up grieving the Holy Spirit in us. To us, a life that brings glory and pleasure to God should be our focus. We need to live in a way which is holy and set apart. We can only do this when we live in union with the crucified and risen Christ <\/div>\n

Many people will agree that we are living in a world in which many people seem to be experiencing an identity crisis. To complicate the matter, this identity crisis has found its way into the Lord’s Church. The question must be asked, “What does it mean to be and live as a Christian?” At the center of our Christian experience, we discover that our union with the Crucified and Risen Jesus shapes our identity and our spiritual formation. Cruciform Identity calls Christians to embrace their union with Christ, grow deeper in their relationship with Him, and experience the beauty of the Christian life.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Michael Cooper’s short but potent work on our spiritual identity in Christ is one of the best books I’ve read on this subject. He writes with one eye on Scripture and the other on personal experience. The combination is effective. Who we are in Christ and knowing who we are in Christ is the key to living the successful Christian life! This book will tell you the what, the how, and the why. Highly recommended!” — David Allen, Distinguished Professor of Preaching at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary<\/span><\/p>\n
