Who Am I and What Am I Doing With My Life?

Justin Poythress's book addresses contemporary identity anxieties—especially around gender, vocation, and online self-creation—by tracing deeper theological questions about what it means to be human.

Grounded in pastoral experience and theological reflection, it argues that modern culture's emphasis on self-creation produces paralysis and instability.

The book proposes that Christian identity is primarily received through union with Christ and secured by the gospel, while sanctification supplies the proper shape of human becoming.

It redeems helpful insights from self-help and productivity literature but locates their root and telos in communion with God. The text aims to be readable and missional, using contemporary language to bring gospel hope to identity concerns.
