You can listen to the full audiobook Permission to Speak Freely: Essays and Art on Fear, Confession, and Grace, free at our library. What is the one thing you feel you can't say in church? In May 2008, Anne Jackson asked a question on her blog, What is one thing you feel you can't say in church? Hundreds responded. Everyone had a story. Permission to Speak Freely is the artistic collaboration and movement of author Anne Jackson, who is through with keeping brokenness in the dark. Bringing to light the original intent of God's sanctuary as a place of help and healing, Anne reveals that through confession, both to God and to others, we can live lives that are whole and healed. Told with disarming transparency, Anne shares what led to her own addictions and the ensuing lifestyle that left her wounded and withdrawn. She includes dramatic stories of others that also learned to lose their fear, pride, and masks; to identify their hurts; and to find the courage to speak freely. Listeners will share in the opportunity to find their own redemption and freedom.
