Unashamed ─ Drop the Baggage, Pick Up Your Freedom, Fulfill Your Destiny

Shame has no place in the purpose, plan, and destiny God has for us because shame lies to us, robs us of the freedom we long for, and shackles us in the prison of our past. “I know,” says Christine Caine, “because I’ve been there. I was schooled in shame. It was my constant companion from my earliest memories. And today, I see shame everywhere I look, including in the church. It creeps from heart to heart, growing in shadowy places, feeding on itself so that those struggling with it are powerless to seek help.”

In Unashamed, Christine Caine weaves examples from her life with those of biblical characters who failed but overcame their shame to show how God heals us and redeems us. In her passionate style, she explains that if we want to change our futures, we have to believe God is bigger than our mistakes, our inadequacies, our pasts, and our limitations. We have to believe God created us for a unique purpose, has a specific plan for us, and has a powerful destiny he wants us to fulfill.

God has already won the victory over sin and its shame, and we do need to spend our lives believing the lies of the deceiver. Instead, we can allow ourselves to be defined by God’s truth and choose to see ourselves the way God does—through the lens of his eternal perspective. So join the journey. Stop merely existing and start thriving. Lay hold of the power of Jesus Christ today and step into his future—a beautiful, full, life-giving future filled with purpose. You can live unashamed!
