How do you make a life and legacy? - A New Kind of New Year. The opening session of the 2017 WordCast jumps in with both feet. Within this question of what makes a life and legacy is a question of identity.  What makes up a person? What makes YOU, YOU? And is it stagnant, can it be changed? Are we all just "born this way"? No matter who you are or what culture you come from, deep within spurs a longing for progress, a sense that the way things are is not final.  Good news is, that search for the "us" the can engage a new way of being is accessible, and Jesus knew the way.
