Embracing Your Freedom by Susie Larson

If you are like most women and have suffered from time to time with an attitude of indifference, you must read Susie Larson’s new book Embracing Your Freedom. Her words of hope and conviction will jumpstart your Christian walk and cause your heart to beat again with fresh faith and purpose.

Embracing Your Freedom gives you a peek behind the scenes of people who have sacrificed for the rights and freedom of others. It would inspirational enough just to read the true stories of these heroes sprinkled throughout the book, but Ms. Larson doesn’t stop there. She challenges her readers to come up a level and not just experience freedom for themselves, but to fight for the freedom of others, too. She says it best in the following excerpt from her book:

Embracing Freedom also means being willing to fight for more freedom and influence than our parents enjoyed. May we take what our parents offered us and build on it, push past it, make something more of it, so our children may make something more of it, so our children may enjoy a greater level of freedom than we ever did.

Embracing Your Freedom will leave eternal “footprints” in every reader’s soul. I was expecting a book on social injustice saturated with depressing statistics. Instead the book challenged me and changed me forever. The following excerpt moved me beyond words.

Enlarge your heart to include people who long for the freedoms you enjoy. And for His name’s sake, press on, take risks and recover every shred of who God intended you to be.

This book should be read by every leader in the Body of Christ. It will rekindle ministry fires and make the leadership more effective.
