Editorial Reviews

Review
"Every once in a while a book comes along which distills and delivers the truths of the Bible with profound simplicity and disruptive integrity. From Fear to Freedom is just such a volume. Rose Marie writes as both a skilled teacher of the Scriptures and a living epistle of God's grace. Her book is a dangerous collection of insights into the liberating power of God's love. Like a Trojan Horse, this seemingly harmless grandmother offers stories calculated to bring freedom to prisoners (like me) of unbelief, legalism and self-pity. Read with care, but by all means read!"
--Scotty Smith, Senior Pastor, Christ Community Church, Franklin, TN and author of Objects of His Affection


"From Fear to Freedom is a powerful and captivating book. This book is 'must' reading for those who want to live daily in the freedom and joy of God?s grace."
-- Jerry Bridges, author of The Pursuit of Holiness and The Joy of Fearing God -- Review

5.0 out of 5 stars Life changing, real life examples, teaches grace, May 11, 1999

By	[e-mail] (California) - See all my reviews

Rose Marie has done a wonderful job of weaving Biblical truths about personal grace and forgiveness with vulnernably told stories from her own life. If you live like an orphan when the King Himself is your Father, this book is for you. She helps the reader understand how we choose to live as rejected people, judged people, miserable people, complaining people, life's victims. She goes on to teach the loving grace and forgiveness of God. She also addresses those situations that are beyond our control, and how to accept and pray for others who hurt us. Its a whole new perspective for the person trained in leaglism. It added balance to my life in the form of personal grace that spills over to others, and has helped bring me closer to my loving Father,God.

5.0 out of 5 stars From Fear to Freedom: Living as Sons and Daughters of God, April 13, 2000

By A Customer

This book is absolutely amazing. God truly speaks through her writing! If you are a woman who struggles with feeling like she doesn't "measure up," hates being "out of control," read this book! There is GRACE for God's children and there is acceptance in HIM! He loves us and is with us at ALL times!

5.0 out of 5 stars Freedom From Legalistic Christianity, May 6, 2003

By	Melanie Hawthorne "sinlessgrace" (North Bellmore, NY) - See all my reviews

As a Christian who struggled with legalistic Christianity, the Lord used this book to open my eyes up to His saving G R A C E. I realized through this book that I can't do anything on my own and that even Christians try to live the Christian life without Christ. The Lord used this book to help me see that I don't need to live the Christian life by rules, laws, and regulations. Just by His grace. And when I come under His grace, everything else follows.
