I believe that this ‘hole’ is of our own making. It is we who have often embraced a shallow and diminished view of God’s bold vision. It is we who have settled for a tamer, safer view of God’s advancing kingdom and our role in it. God has always had a bigger vision than ours. No doubt that this book will provoke - and maybe even anger some, but I also hope it will inspire and lift our sights to the power of the possible. –Richard Stearns, President of World Vision

Delete Your Identity


Personal:
It's hard to imagine, but how would you get by without any form of ID. You wouldn't be able to get a job, prove you're a legal citizen, or drive a car. What fears come with being unknown and alienated? Why is it important to human beings to be known?

Action:
Everyone has forgotten their wallet or purse at least once. What type of anxieties and fears arise when we lose our IDs and credit cards? How long would you wait before replacing everything in your wallet or purse if you lost it?

When you don't have all the things in your wallet, such a a student ID which allows you to get into your dorm, how does it affect your relationships with people? How much would you need to depend on people? How long would it take before those people started getting annoyed with your "free-loading?"

What would it be like if no one around you would help you, or if no one around you was able to help you? What would you do?
