Description

You don't have to keep striving for freedom. You can live into the freedom you already have in Christ.

In You Are Free, Rebekah Lyons--author of Rhythms of Renewal--reveals her journey of releasing stress, anxiety, and worry to uncover the peace that comes from Jesus Christ.

Have you bought into the lie? So many of us do. We measure our worth by what others think of us. We compare and strive, living our lives for the approval of others. Pressure rises, fear and anxiety creeps in, and we hustle to keep up.

But Jesus tells us that he gave his life to set us free, giving us purpose and calling us to live in that God-given freedom and purpose. Maybe we're afraid to live in this truth because we can't even believe it. Rebekah reminds us that Christ doesn't say we can be or may be or will be free. He says we are free. Do you dare to believe it?

In You Are Free, Rebekah invites you to:

  • Overcome the exhaustion of trying to meet others' expectations and rest in the joy that God's freedom brings
  • Find permission to grieve past experiences, confess your areas of brokenness, and receive strength in your journey toward healing
  • Throw off self-condemnation and step boldly into what our good God has for you
  • Discover the courage to begin again and use your newfound freedom to set others free

 

Freedom is for everyone who wants it--the lost, the wounded, and those weary from all of the striving. It's for those of us who gave up trying years ago and for those of us who are angry and hurt, burnt out by the Christian song and dance. You are the church, the people of God. You were meant to be free.

Join Rebekah as she helps you discover the freedom that comes when we learn that God is enough.
