Faith and Freedom, what does that mean to you? For some it means patriotism and the sacrifice our military men and women have made. For others it has a spiritual meaning–freedom from the slavery to sin and death.

This collection of stories, poems, and devotions reflect all of these forms. May they inspire you to celebrate your own journey or to take the steps necessary to secure your own faith and freedom.
