Permission To Speak Freely - Church Dismay, Questioning God, & Hiding from God

TRUE CONFESSIONS OF

CHURH DISMAY, QUESTIONING GOD, HIDING FROM GOD

In May 2008, I asked a question on my blog, http://www.flowerdust.net

What is the one thing you feel you can’t say in church?

Hundreds responded.

Everyone had a story.

The result is a movement by people everywhere who are finished with keeping their brokenness in the...

...dark.

CHURCH DISMAY

CHURCH DISMAY The church is supposed to be a safe place for everybody, especially people who are most broken, right?

“The church can be safe. But we can’t rely on others to make it a safe place.

It begins with us.”

QUESTIONING GOD

QUESTIONING GOD Where is He when I need Him?

“The Bible says the only thing we have to do is take a step into the light. When we respond like that, His Word will find its way into our hearts.�

People shared stories of

HIDING FROM GOD

HIDING FROM GOD When we sin, why do we often feel we need to work our way back into a relationship with God?

“It doesn’t matter how much we have sinned, or what things we keep in the dark or just how hidden we think we are from God - we may be out of His will, but we’re not out of His reach.”

- Anne Jackson

Through confession, both to God and to others, we can live lives that are whole and healed. Let these confessions and others found within the pages of Permission to Speak Freely serve as inspiration to discovering your own path to redemption and freedom.
