#134 From Religious Legalism to Spiritual Freedom: Lauren's Breeze Pursuit

Have you ever felt trapped by religious legalism and longed for the liberating power of the gospel? Join us on a soul-stirring journey with my sister Lauren as we explore her faith evolution, from her Adventist upbringing to her college experiences balancing religious adherence and personal relationships. In the second half, we delve into Lauren's ministry, her quest for gospel freedom with her husband Wesley, and their transformative 2022 moment. Discover Lauren's encounters with the Love Reality community, a song's profound impact, and her personal identity as cherished by God. Together, we challenge the idea that our actions earn God's approval and learn to embrace His love through grace. Be inspired by Lauren's journey from fear to faith and the discovery of God's unconditional love.
