Foundations of Freedom: An Introduction to Living Set Free in Christ - Paperback

by Mike Riches (Author)

"Freedom" is at the heart of the life and message

of Jesus Christ and the mission of His followers.
Jesus said, "If you abide in My Word, and My Word abides in you, then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free. . . if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed" (John 8:32). That is what this book is all about: to help you identify where, why, and how you live in bondages and slavery instead of in freedom and hope.

Foundations of Freedom is a five-session experience of the larger Living Set Free in Christ course (which is 12 one-hour sessions), and is suitable for use in workshops, small-groups, and one-on-one discipleship settings, as well as for personal devotional use. It provides a primer on starting on a path to freedom in Jesus Christ, equipping you with the biblical truth you need in your pursuit of living the abundant life Jesus promised for His disciples (John 10:10), including:

- Understanding God's original design for Creation and for you

- Recognizing the two-realm nature of our world

- Learning how to use the power and authority that are yours in Christ

- Being aware of how strongholds are built in your life, and how to tear them down

- Continuing on in a life of freedom with an undivided heart for God

You'll also discover how to use the divinely powerful weapons God has given you to break free-and live free-of the obstacles that hold you back from experiencing abundant life. In this book, you'll learn and apply the "4R" prayer model to stronghold issues in your life like insignificance, fear, passivity, "open doors" and injustices from your past, and unforgiveness.

Through Christ's power and authority, you can break out of those bondages to live in the freedom Jesus purchased for you!
