Becoming Good News: Reimagining Discipleship Through Identity, Story, and Science

**What story is shaping your life?**

For too long, we’ve lived as though spiritual growth simply means trying harder or being better for God. But what if the deepest transformation doesn’t come from doing more for Jesus, but from letting Him tell us who we are?

In _Becoming Good News_, you’ll discover how the stories you’re living from determine what you believe about God, yourself, and the world. Through biblical insight, cutting-edge brain science, and practical tools, Jessie Cruickshank and Julia Schmaltz offer a new paradigm for discipleship: you become who God intends you to be only when you align your narrative with God’s script.

You’ll learn to

*   recognize and replace false narratives that are keeping you from a life of true transformation.
*   discover the five questions at the heart of every disciple’s journey: _Who is God? Who am I? Who do I belong to? Who am I becoming? Who do I represent?_
*   reimagine discipleship as an embodied, relational process rather than a series of spiritual steps.
*   experience the healing power of true community and the freedom of living under God’s authority.
*   learn how becoming good news reveals Jesus to the world.

It’s time to dismantle the stories that keep you stuck in shame, striving, and performance. God is inviting you to set aside the false narratives of achievement-based spirituality and let Jesus reinterpret your story, replace lies with truth, and restore your God-given identity.Read less
