St Paul's martydom might not quite vindicate all his speculative theology... but somehow, in spite of everything, he was still a man of the church, something which can't be said for most of his sophiological colleagues, or for any of his ideological descendants.

I have been a Christian for many years and thought I understood freedom in Christ until I took this Bible study. I found out more about what a loving Father God really is in 10 weeks than I have in 22 years. Beth Moore takes you on the Freedom Express as she journeys thru Scripture to show how God loves us, forgives us, and wants us to live a life free of guilt and shame. She brings to life the point that we are children of the King and worthy of His love and forgiveness. She points out how as such a child, we truly are beautiful in His eyes.

If you have felt that Bible studies just haven't gone deep enough for you, or maybe you're tired of hearing the same old things in women's studies, this book is for you. Many women in our church are going through the workbook version of this book and all agree that there is power and truth in this study. It will take you deep into the Word...mostly old testament, especially Isaiah, but really all through the Scriptures. God has really blessed Beth with insights and the ability to pull powerful and life-changing truths from His word. The title, Breaking Free, Making Liberty in Christ a Reality, is right on, and what is inside does not disappoint. Again, I have experience with the workbook (which I don't see listed here)but the hardcover covers the same topics. There is a video series that goes with the workbooks, but much could be learned through the book even without the video. It's wonderful for group studies. Encourage your church to purchase the video series to use in small groups. You will not be unchanged!

Beth Moore has a wonderful ability to remind us of what Jesus said is finished and why we're free. I found this to be a delightful book from a female prospective that hit me right where I am. She reminded me of my identity in Christ and how there's no shame or condemnation since now I reside in Christ Jesus.

What more can I say! Who doesn't want to EXPERIENCE freedom, especially if you already HAVE it!?!
