Summary: | This article introduces the phenomena of multiple identities and their communication channels that today’s individuals have. Upon reviewing the sociological characteristics of multiple identity holders, they are highly connected people. Though all the people hold multiple identities, the context of the modern city connects people to ever more diverse locations. In the Bible, the multiple identity holders used by God can be categorized into the types of early adopters, bridge, guardian, peacemaker, and mobilizer. The church and mission agencies must recognize that these people can become new channels of joy and should help them fulfill their missions according to biblical principles. |
