Freedom. We long for it. We fight for it. We will do anything to get it.
Yet sometimes we forget to live in it!
This weekend while our family celebrated the freedom and independence of our country, I was reminded what freedom means and how easily I take it for granted, especially as a Christ-follower. Yet Jesus said, “If the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.“John 8:36
In Christ we are free!
- Free from guilt that weighs us down and sin that holds us back.
- Free from labels that define us and doubts that limit us.
- Free from grace-less expectations and obligations.
It was for freedom that Christ set us free. (Galatians 5:1). Let’s take hold of this truth, and LIVE #FREE in the power of HIS promises and the purpose of His plans for our lives!

FREEDOM from Mommy-Guilt
Do you look at other families who seem so “put together” and wonder why your’s doesn’t isn’t? Does mommy-guilt over your child’s “issues” ever keep you from enjoying motherhood and where your kids are in their journey of growing up?
There have been times when I could answer “yes” to both questions. And during those days or weeks, or months, I miss out on what God has for me as a mom.
One of the best gifts we can give ourselves is GRACE to have an imperfect family and be an imperfect mom. And one of the best gifts we can give our children is to set them FREE to be all that God has created them to be—not forcing them to live out our dreams or comparing them to our friend’s kid.
Jill Savage and Kathy Koch have written a guide to help parents truly appreciate their kids. One thing I love about this book is their goal to teach us how to study and become an expert on our children, knowing that we cannot fully embrace them until you truly know them.
- Identify and remove the Perfection Infection from our parenting.
- Really know each child so we can fully embrace their unique design.
- Release our children from unrealistic expectations.
- Answer the questions our kids are silently asking in a way that gives them the courage and freedom to be themselves.
Written in a passionate, candid, and personal way, the authors will instill within you hope and contentment. You’ll be inspired to apply the practical, realistic, and relevant ideas and tactics Jill and Kathy share. (Leaders Guide included in back of book.) And thanks to Jill and Kathy’s generous publisher, I’ve got 5 copies to give away!!

I want a Limitless Life!!
I would love to have either!
My sons are kind of old grown ups, I wish I had these resources when they were little and teenagers. I don’t want either. Reading makes me feel bad, I only read devotionals on the computer. I am living by myself and feel very alone, the only friend I have around is the computer.
The Lord bless you and your loved ones and your ministry
We do serve an awesome and amazing God and His Grace is sufficient for us. But it seems we so often
Forget that very thought. Love your bible studies on line. May God continue to Bless your ministry.
Would love to win “Limitless Life” conference series.
Either. Although my children are grown, I am sure the books would be helpful to me too. I still struggle with labels, and with judgment. My heart knows God’s word, but I am still working on letting go of all the years of feeling that I would be punished every time I messed up. I have been taught so much about God’s grace, I thank him each day for what I am learning.
Book. I would like growth in my spiritual life and freedom from “mommy guilt”. Thanks for all your insights- such a blessing in my life.
I would love to have a BOOK! That way I can go back over and over and find new things that God will reveal to me. Also gives me something that I could bless others with. Book please! God bless and thank you!!
I would love to win the conference calls. I have been feeling quite trapped lately and have been thinking on how Christ has set me free, but I feel like I can’t get to it. Maybe this would help me to have a clearer perspective. Thanks for the opportunity!
It would bless me to win either. Thanks for the opportunity:) As my children are in middle and high school now my hearts desire is to prepare them for God’s plan for their future , not the worlds and discernment to know Him. As my children’s needs change, my life, my ministry changes too. To dive into God’s plan for my future and leave my insecurities behind will be a blessing!
Either…I need help remembering God is in control and turn to Him when I have anxiety over my life as well as for my children. Either will help guide me and speak volumes to me so i can become a better mom, wife, daughter, sister and friend.
Conference calls and I need growth in my spiritual life
Thank you for by your insights! I would love the parenting book!!
Book, please. I would like to feel less obligated and be able to say no.
Hi Renee!
I feel the place I need to grow the most is letting go of my fears. It holds me back from everything, even enjoying life and family to the fullest. It’s becoming a hindrance and I am praying everyday for deliverance. I feel the conference calls will be a great blessing to start me on my journey! Thanks!
Tia
Either! 🙂 What a wonderful gift!
EITHER. The area of my Christian walk I need to examine is my Faith. I need to understand and constantly rember that walking in Faith is first an obedience to God. Then after you have that obedience, then the understanding will come!
I would love to have either. I have two beautiful daughters with my oldest leaving for college in a few weeks. This transition will be difficult for the whole family but hardest on the youngest as she and her sister have been inseparable these past two years. My goals are freedom from anxiety and worry and growth in my spiritual life. God bless you!
Ilove books. I cannot get enough reading – now to just find the time. 🙂
Either : )
Either and the area where I need I more growth in is my spiritual life; being patient, hearing from God, impacting the lives of others, effective praying.
