Walking in the Newness of Christ

ButterflyLiving was created to help Christians embrace a new identity in Christ. When a butterfly breaks free from its cocoon, they emerge as a new beautiful creation. Similarly, when we accept that we are a beloved Child of God, we can relax and begin to embrace our new identity. In Romans 6:4 Paul implores us to walk in our new identity:

"Our old way of life was nailed to the cross with Christ, a decisive end to that sin-miserable life no longer at sin's every beck and call! What we believe is this: If we get included in Christ's sin-conquering death, we also get included in his life-saving resurrection."

Join us as we share stories and practical examples of walking out a better altogether life as Christ followers.

Sharing Your Story: 3 Powerful Ways Your Story Reveals God’s Goodness

Sharing your story is powerful because every person has a unique story. Some chapters are planned by the God who gave you life, and some are written by the hand of our fallen world. In the darkness, there is brokenness. The world is not how God originally intended it to be. Somehow, God can take…
