Radical Freedom
Radical Freedom is Spiritual Freedom
(1) YOU HAVE TO WANT TO BE FREE – Luke 9:23
Why people remain in bondage
-living in a state of denial – denying you have an issue

(2) ADMIT SOME THINGS – James 5:16
1. admit your issues
-name them
2. admit you need some help

-small becomes big
3. admit that every issue can be overcome
-with God all things are possible
-the resources available in today’s society
(3) TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR ISSUES – Joshua 24:15
-do not play the part of the victim
-focus on yourself and not on others
-the blame game needs to end
-take responsibility for your own issues
(4) NEVER CONSIDER YOURSELF OKAY – Philippians 3:10-17
a. Keep working on yourself
-all issues can be conquered if we keep on keeping on for Jesus
-never stop
b. know that God is for you
-do not go by feelings or emotions or how messy the situation is
(5) ESTABLISH HEALTHY BOUNDARIES – Proverbs 23:19-23
