It is a universal part of the human condition to struggle with defeating beliefs and harmful behavioral patterns. This book provides solid wisdom and real-life examples to gently guide readers out of the bog of their struggles to find freedom in God’s promises. Beginning with the origins of humanity’s “chains of oppression, affliction, and curses” when Adam and Eve separated from God through the seduction of evil, the author demonstrates how belief in Jesus is the answer to letting go of these chains.

Park discusses how to find freedom from negative or obsessive thoughts, unforgiveness, addictions, and unhealthy relationships. Timely stories are interspersed throughout, including those of Rodney and Bob, whose lives were freed from an addiction to drugs; Bill and Larry, who struggled with OCD, obsessive thoughts, and scrupulosity; Jenny and Olivia, who dealt with parental abuse as children; and Jane and Marge, whose marriages crumbled due to infidelity. She provides step-by-step guidance for transformation and for overcoming addictions. Ultimately, true freedom is found when one surrenders one’s time, material goods, relationships, expectations, and addictions into God’s merciful hands.

The author pulls from deep wisdom garnered through years of experience to create a thoughtful, methodical, and organized guidebook for any believer looking to free themselves from patterns or thoughts that are bringing them down. Packed with scripture, prayers, reflection questions, and true stories, the author’s book expresses Park's genuine desire to help her readers live a full and free life. While the author speaks from a Christian perspective and emphasizes the power of prayer and Jesus’ intercession in healing wounds and conquering addictions, she also recognizes the role of therapy and medications as appropriate. Her compassionate outlook and thoughtful approach create a beautiful work that will touch many lives.
