From looking outwardly to please others to looking inwardly to define ourselves, we constantly try to cultivate or construct our identities. But guided by the whims of culture or the faulty advice of tradition, we often find identity collapses when life falls apart or change threatens that fragile structure. Is it possible to discover an identity bolstered with unassailable confidence, strengthened for the challenges of life rather than destroyed by them, and free from the whims of cultural pressure? Yes! It is an identity received, not achieved - an identity established in the gospel.

In Stop Trying, Cary Schmidt’s storytelling creates compelling scenes in which you’ll see yourself and your self. You’ll understand why defining your identity outside of Jesus Christ is ultimately fragile, hollow, and unsatisfying. And you'll discover that your truest and most fulfilling identity is a byproduct of a relationship that changes everything.

Thank you brother Cary! It's been a wild 3 years for me. I went from having my identity stolen to having a mental break and my identity was shattered. I'm currently discovering my Gospel identity in Jesus Christ. I've been a traditionalist for most of my life. However, when you're brain goes on a vacation and your soul is bare there is no more hiding who you are. We can't hide from GOD anyway. Your true self is exposed and ready for transformation.

Thank you for your gentle, yet candid realness and refreshing love for Christ. Inpray that the LORD bleses you, your family, and place of worship!
