Who do you declare yourself to be when your identity is fractured and you’re left in your wilderness as you navigate between two altars? The issues of life come upon us in various ways and varying stages, and knowing who we are at those times is vital. The Broken Cross seeks to speak to those issues from a personal and spiritual perspective. Written by a soul that has seen both victories and failures in life, this study offers insight on personal identity and the ways in which God has prepared us mentally and spiritually to survive during our own self-imposed failures and our sense of feeling lost between callings. When we fail to know our identity beyond our name, we face a constant struggle with our life’s assignment. Only when we embrace our God-given identity can we return to destiny’s path. Encompassing both personal narrative and biblical study, this guide explores self-awareness in relation to mental and spiritual conditions and consider the question of our God-given identity.
The human transformation available at the 'limen' (literally: the edge or threshold), noticed across different cultures by anthropologists, is at the heart of the Gospel. Indeed the liminal place is the place of transformation and change par excellence. We live in age of enormous and rapid change to which we do not yet see an end. There is therefore a 'kairos' moment here for the church to understand the importance of liminality through this unique book. Reading this book will offer new 'lenses' to understand humanity, God's world, the shape of Christian discipleship, the church and its mission differently. The authors believe engaging with liminality can help both readers' faith and the church to be re-imagined - and have included case studies, exercises and questions in each chapter to help this process.

For 30 years, Bayly wrote Eternity magazine's popular "Out of My Mind" column. Now, for the first time, the best of those much-talked-about columns--plus sermons, interviews, poems, and letters--has been collected in a book that's sure Kenneth Taylor, and C. Everett Koop.
