Unburdened Shedding the Fear of Man and Walking Light as a Child of God

As followers of Christ, we all want to live out our faith in a way that is genuine, Christ-honoring, and gospel-centered. But, often, our faith journeys become encumbered by a fear of man. We want to be known, to be noticed, and to be thought well of. Our focuses turn inward, and we are crippled in our efforts to live God-glorifying lives. Colleen Wachob admits that she has trudged through life with a heavy backpack of man-fearing. It's a knapsack of hindrances she longs to drop along the trail, and she invites you to join her. In Unburdened, you will learn how to: • Biblically define and identify patterns of man-fearing • See and savor the majesty of your King • Embrace your identity as a redeemed child of God • Shed the weight of man-fearing and walk the unique path God has designed for your life Through personal stories and Biblical teaching, Colleen will journey with you to find new freedom and joy in your Christian walk.

Colleen Wachob is a follower of Jesus, a wife who is deeply in love with her husband, and a stay-at-home mama of four (soon to be five) children. She graduated from the University of Washington with a degree in nursing, but now mostly uses her medical training to pull out slivers, bathe fevered brows, and apply bandages to little-girl scrapes. You can find her blogging (but only sporadically) at www.messes_and_miracles.blogspot.com. More often, you can find her exploring the Wyoming wilderness with her adventurous family, curled up with a stack of picture books and her sweet daughters, or teaching Bible stories to wiggly preschoolers.
