Description
For many of us, we might busy ourselves with projects or work long hours to keep our mind off our pain. We might look at our circumstances and seek to change our situation in the hope that we will finally feel at peace once our life has changed.
The question is - How often do you look to God in His Word for help and hope? How often do you turn to Him when you feel anxious, distraught, or abandoned? How often do you bring your burdens to your Savior? Take a journey of hope through the Psalms of lament with Christina Fox.

Reviews / Votes
"... invites us to vulnerability, transparency and trust - particularly when life is hard ... offers practical, empathetic help for those whose emotions have taken them captive in a time of upheaval.
"Jen Wilkin
"
... I wish I had Christina's book back when I became a believer. It would have saved me a lot of painful emotion-stuffing and foolish emotion-ignoring.
"Gloria Furman
"
... In A Heart Set Free, Christina Fox comes at our emotions, particularly the emotion of lament, from a Biblical view. Using the Psalms she takes the reader on a valuable journey teaching how to understand and express our emotions to our Heavenly Father.
"Jessica Thompson
"
With theological integrity and practical suggestions she tenderly teaches us the language of lament and how our lamentations can take us to the gospel.
"Susan Hunt
"
The undertow of our emotions can quickly sweep us away. A Heart Set Free anchors our hearts in the truth and invites us to cry out boldly to our Savior.
"Karen Hodge
"
Some days feel like a roller coaster ride--up and down, and if possible sideways ... Christina doesn't ignore our emotions, rather she drives us from the wild ride to the freedom found in Jesus.
"Trillia Newbell
"
A wonderful book ... rather than letting emotions control us, we learn how they can focus our hearts more firmly on God in the midst of all life's deepest troubles.
