Why we were created seems a recurring question whenever people try to understand the
purpose of their lives. Author Dr. Martin O. Edu offers a Scripture-based perspective in his new
book, Discover What You Have in Christ. He discusses our creation in God’s image and likeness,
and how we receive His blessings in Christ through His love and favor. Separated into themed
chapters that declare what we have in Christ, Dr. Edu discusses such blessings as Spirit of
obedience, fruit of the Spirit and the living hope that we have in Jesus. His core message is that
we were created to love as God does, because God gave His Son so that we would know the
truth and be saved in Him. By believing in Him, we take on Christ’s identity to love when it’s not
fair, believe when it’s hard and share in God’s glory even when we’ve sinned.
