Sherri and Jim Bible Study on iOVERCOME RADIO

Jul 14, 2026    Jim McRae, Sherri McRae

One of the most beautiful truths in the Bible is that God doesn't simply forgive us—He adopts us. Through Jesus Christ, we are welcomed into God's family, given a new name, a new identity, and a new future. But stepping into that new identity often means letting go of the old one.


In this episode of iOVERCOME with Jim and Sherri, we explore what it truly means to be adopted as sons and daughters of God. Many of us still live as though we're defined by our past mistakes, failures, fears, or the labels others have placed on us. Yet Scripture tells us that in Christ, we are no longer orphans, slaves to sin, or prisoners of our past—we are beloved children of our Heavenly Father.


We'll discuss why embracing our new identity requires surrendering the old one, how God transforms our thinking as we walk with Him, and why living as God's child changes the way we see ourselves, our purpose, and our future. Adoption isn't just a change of status; it's an invitation into a completely new way of living.

Join Jim and Sherri as they unpack the incredible gift of being adopted into God's family and discover how leaving behind your old identity is the first step toward becoming the person God created you to be.


You don't have to keep living under yesterday's labels. In Christ, you've been given a new name, a new family, and a new life.
