Your Redemptive Healing: Experience God's Freedom, Wholeness

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: McCray, Jan, PUBLISHER: Chosen Books, God intends families to live together in an atmosphere of love, acceptance, forgiveness, and respect. Yet in every family, people experience pain, rejection, and disappointment. Jan McCray reminds readers that God is a God of covenant and that his extravagant love has already secured our redemptive healing. In Your Redemptive Healing, McCray emphasizes that any true, long-term healing requires us to acknowledge and deal with the hurts of the past. "Many in the Body of Christ are treating the symptoms of their wounded pasts instead of allowing God to uncover and heal the root causes," says McCray. She provides practical step-by-step solutions, based on Jesus' work on the cross, for true freedom and redemptive healing that transforms the whole person-mind, body, and spirit. Divided into three main sections, God's Freedom Appreciated, God's Wholeness Appropriated, and God's Blessing Activated, McCray reminds us that it takes time for God to heal our emotions. By combining stories from her counseling, experiences from her own past, and answers from God's Word, McCray shows readers how to find freedom from the pain of the past and live in the victory Jesus has already won for us.
