Welcome back to Legacy Matters: Conversations on Faith, Family, and Future! In Episode 18, we kick off Season 2 with an inspiring conversation centered on one of the most pivotal events at The King’s Academy: Spiritual Emphasis Week. This week is all about our theme, "Unveiled: Discovering Your True Identity in Christ," a powerful focus for students as they navigate questions of faith and identity.
Your host, Blake Fuller, Chief Communications Officer and Director of Spiritual Formation, is joined by returning guest Dominic Kendal, Youth Pastor at Connect Church. Together, they unpack the heart behind this year’s Spiritual Emphasis Week and dive deep into the vital topic of finding our true identity in Christ.
Blake starts by giving a bit of backstory on his role at The King’s Academy and the insights gathered from student surveys, revealing two key issues: uncertainty in faith and confusion about identity. With these challenges in mind, the school’s theme for chapel this year became “Rooted,” focusing on developing a firm foundation in Christ. Spiritual Emphasis Week will serve as the culmination of this focus, and Dominic will be delivering messages that explore what it means to truly be “Unveiled” in Christ.
Throughout this episode, Dominic shares his insights on why identity in Christ is such an urgent message for today’s youth. He reflects on his 15 years of ministry experience, noting the shifts in how young people perceive their identity in a world full of distractions and shifting cultural norms. Together, Blake and Dominic discuss how students can begin to shed the false identities they may have adopted and embrace the truth of who they are in Christ.
This episode also offers practical advice for families who want to support their children in discovering their true identity in Christ. Dominic emphasizes the importance of creating an open, grace-filled environment where students can feel safe to explore their faith. He also provides steps students can take if they feel lost or confused, including grounding themselves in scripture, prayer, and community.
Whether you're a parent, student, or someone seeking to grow deeper in your faith, this episode offers valuable takeaways as we prepare for Spiritual Emphasis Week. Be sure to tune in for a preview of the impactful messages to come and get ready to experience the life-changing truth that our identity is securely found in Christ.
