In this opening episode of the Free Methodist Identity Series, Bishop Kevin Mannoia explores why identity is crucial for both individuals and churches. Using his powerful iceberg metaphor, Kevin explains how our identity forms the foundation that shapes everything we do.
Kevin draws from his extensive leadership experience and writings, including “The Integrity Factor,” to demonstrate how identity provides the stabilizing anchor that keeps us secure in changing circumstances. He challenges viewers to understand that Free Methodist identity isn’t just a set of practices or phrases, but a deep DNA formed by generations of faithful people.
This foundational teaching prepares viewers for the complete Identity Series journey, exploring what makes Free Methodists uniquely equipped to serve God’s kingdom. Whether you’re a pastor, lay leader, or church member, this series will deepen your understanding of our denominational heritage and mission.
