Maybe you are not sure you like where you've been or who you've become. Maybe you're struggling to find your true identity or where exactly you fit in this crazy world. The freeing news is you're not alone. Throughout his travels, award- winning Christian music singer and songwriter Matthew West has collect- ed thousands of stories from around the world of people dealing with this very issue. Well known for commu- nicating these stories through song, West will continue that storytelling theme in his book, "Hello, My Name Is...: Discover Your True Identity" (Worthy Publishing, April 2017). After collecting so many stories from so many different people, West learned an important truth: Every person has a difficult journey to dis- cover their true, God- given identity. As West explained, "The Bible describes Satan as the 'father of lies.' And the father of lies would love nothing more than to get you to believe a lie about yourself. He knows that if you take ownership of a false identity, before long, that false iden- tity will own you. And the more time you spend being owned by a false identity, the further away you fall from discovering the power and the freedom and the hope that is waiting to be tapped into when you take hold of the truth of who God says you are." Throughout the book, West takes the stories he has collected over the years to inspire readers to reconnect with their own best self. His hope is that they will understand their iden- tity isn't found within, but through the Savior, Jesus Christ. "The day is coming when all of the name-tags we've accumulated, all the false identities we've owned, all the lies of the enemy we've had a hard time shaking will fall to the ground once and for all as we stand before the Lord," said West. "None of it will matter anymore because our true names will be known by him and spoken by him." Matthew West is a multiple-ASCAP Christian Music Songwriter/Artist of the Year winner, a four-time GRAMMY® nominee, and was award- ed an American Music Award (2013) and a Billboard Music Award (2014).
