What if your identity isn’t something you have to earn?

In Part 2 of Chameleon, we slow down and talk about the quiet fear a lot of us carry: that we’re overlooked, unwanted, or only valuable when we perform. Using 1 Peter 2:9–12, we unpack what it means when the Bible says you’re “chosen” and “God’s own possession”—and why that identity comes before purpose, before “trying harder,” and before you have everything figured out.

We’ll also look at a story of radical change in Acts 9 and sit with the question:
What would shift in your life if you actually believed you were wanted?

CHAMELEON — Part 1: Do Not Conform

Who are you when no one’s watching?

In the first episode of Chameleon, we talk about the quiet pressure to blend in—socially, emotionally, and even spiritually—and how it slowly shapes who we become.

Using Romans 12:2 and two stories from the life of Jesus, this episode explores the difference between conforming to the patterns around us and being transformed from the inside out. We slow down, unpack the context of these stories, and ask an honest question that still matters today:

Do you actually want to be well?

This isn’t about behavior modification or pretending to have it all together. It’s an invitation to notice the patterns you’ve normalized, the identity you’ve adopted, and the possibility of something deeper.

Pull up a chair. Let the question linger.
We’ll see you at the table.

In this episode of The Table, I sit down with my wife’s grandad, Bryan Beyer, for a conversation across generations.

We talk about faith over a lifetime — how calling unfolds slowly, how marriage and family shape you, how scholarship and devotion intersect, and why, after all these years, Jesus is still worth following.

This isn’t a lecture or a debate.
It’s a story.
A reflection on faith that has been tested, refined, and lived out over decades.

Wherever you’re coming from — curious, skeptical, rooted, or still figuring things out — there’s a seat for you at the table.
