On this episode of This vs. That, we welcome Kyle Worley, founder and lead pastor of Mosaic Church in Richardson, Texas. We explore the profound concept of our identity in Christ and what it means to be adopted as children of God.

Today I'm joined by Kyle Worley, and we're breaking down what it actually means to have union with Christ and anchor our children's identity in God in the middle of a world full of noise, confusion, and competing worldviews.  Here's what you'll hear in today's conversation:Understanding our connection to God through Jesus gives kids a steady anchor in a shifting world.  Kyle explains how we can teach our kids that faith is about relationship, not just rules.  A solid identity in Christ shapes how we parent, how our kids see themselves, and how they respond to the world.  You don't have to be a theologian—Kyle shares practical tips and resources to bring these truths into everyday family life.  Kyle Worley is a pastor, theologian, and co-host of the Knowing Faith podcast. He's passionate about helping families and churches understand deep theological truths in accessible ways, especially when it comes to teaching kids the beauty of the Gospel and their identity in Christ.  This episode is packed with truth and encouragement. Whether theology feels natural to you or totally intimidating, I know you'll leave feeling more equipped to guide your kids toward a deep, lasting relationship with Jesus.(02:26) Cultivating Friendship in Family Dynamics(04:53) Understanding Union with Christ(10:24) Fellowship as the Goal of Salvation(16:41) Communicating the Gospel to Children(24:06) Identity in Christ: A Foundation for Parenting(27:39) Encouragement and Resources for ParentsConnect with KyleHome with God bookInstagramKyleWorley.netKnowing Faith podcastResources MentionedTiny Theologians PodcastSlugs and BugsKaleidoscope Kids BiblesUntriggeredMoms, Dads, and Grads Gift GuideChristian Parenting PodcastThe Christian Parenting Podcast is a part of the Christian Parenting Podcast Network.

I have noticed the unfortunate trend of disunity amongst believers. I think it stems from our lack of unity over Christ Himself! When we share true communion with God, this affects how we perceive ourselves, links arms with the Church, and enables us to reach the world through the love and power of the Gospel! My friend Kyle Worley has noticed this reality and has written a book that tackles the issue head-on! Today, that is what we are diving into.
