Summary

Jessica Stovall, from our community group in Oxford, Mississippi, shares her journey of struggling with drugs and alcohol at an early age to going through the recovery process to letting go of shame and guilt, and ultimately, to finding her identity as a child of God. Her story will remind you there is nothing in your past that will keep you from God's love and forgiveness and He always wants to do abundantly more than you could ask or imagine with your life.

IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN:

* The enemy of your soul always wants you to find your identity in the things of this world instead of your true identity in Christ.

* God is a patient Father and wants to answer your prayers.

* There is great freedom in knowing your identity is in Christ alone!

1:17.9	that are from way back. It's so exciting. It is so exciting. You know, last summer we called them
