What pastors are saying
“It's freedom from the need to prove ourselves, it's freedom from the fear that there isn't room enough, but ultimately it's freedom to love.”
“Free to be who God has created us to be. Freedom from and freedom for. What is Christ setting me free from? And what is Christ setting me free for?”
“"While freedom in the worldly sense is not free, the grace of God in Christ Jesus certainly is freely given."”

“Spiritual freedom cannot be earned by human grit or resistance. It's simply a free gift, accomplished entirely by Christ on the cross, making you free.”
