"What is the one thing you feel you can't say in church?" In May 2008, Anne Jackson asked this question on her blog. Hundreds responded. Everyone had a story. The result is a movement by people everywhere who are finished with keeping their brokenness in the dark. Through confession, both to God and to others, we can live lives that are whole and healed. This presentation offers an inside look into confessions found within the book on the topics of Fear, Evil & Heartbreak.

26. “The Bible is filled with broken
people, most of whom tried to cover
up their brokenness. Yet it seems like
the people who are the most broken,
the most helpless, are the people God
often uses the most.”

Speak Freely serve as inspiration to
discovering your own path to redemption
and freedom.
