Every half-hour episode prominent faith leaders, including best-selling author Max Lucado, Lifechurch.tv’s Craig Groeschel, Bishop George Bloomer and Rev. Samuel Rodriquez, will shed light on what it means to really go after God’s call on your life.

Other faith leaders featured include: Jamal Bryant, pastor of Empowerment Temple AME Church in Baltimore; Mike Breaux, pastor of Canyon Ridge Christian Church in Las Vegas; Miles McPherson, pastor of The Rock Church in San Diego; author Lisa Harper; author Holly Wagner; Bil Cornelius, pastor of Bay Area Fellowship in Corpus Christi, Texas; Raleigh Washington, president of Promise Keepers; David Nasser, pastor of Christ City Church in Birmingham, Ala.; and best-selling author Lee Strobel.

THE IDENTITY SERIES will air Aug. 1-Sept. 5 on both secular and Christian television networks, including: ABC Family, CMT, Lifetime, Discovery Channel, TBN, Daystar, The Word Network, INSP and TCT. Churches also have the opportunity to stream episodes to their congregation during services. For more information on this visit www.theidentityseries.com.

“Our IDENTITY SERIES brings relevancy to the modern churchgoer,” Marcellino explained, “by elevating the movie’s core truth, that Jesus Christ alone can answer the question we all ask ourselves: Who am I and what am I here for?”
