Nancy Becker and I talk about the spiritual difference between being a captive in life or a prisoner. We examine how our words can put others in captivity, and how our unforgiveness and bitterness we hold on to can make us a prisoner to our circumstances in life. We talk about freedom, and how to experience freedom and walk in all that God has called you to in life post captivity.

If you haven't tried 2Betties products, now is your chance. Order online and use the code created for this podcast- 15OFF to get the tasty treats.
