Choosing Freedom

10. Prayer (Part 2): Confession to Freedom—The Ultimate Rescue

In part two of this series, we are on a journey to honestly examine our approach to the topic of confession.What makes confession seem so daunting? How does our perception of Godimpact the effectiveness of our prayers? What does research say about how our approach to prayer affects our mental health? How can we begin to see confession as a form of “rescue”?Christ died to set us free from the lies we have believed about ourselves and about God. He came to break bondages and bring us into close relationship with Him. Confession wasn’t meant to be condemning. It purifies our hearts and rescues us from defeat and shame.Don’t miss this open invitation to meet God in a fresh way. Through confession, He makes all things new!
