2 KwabaseKhorinte 12:9

The Bible is a book of redemption, freedom, and hope. Within its pages are characters dynamic and full of grit—broken men and women looking for answers. In a way, they’re a lot like the current and former prisoners who authored the devotionals you’re about to read. We hope you are encouraged and inspired by voices from the church behind bars. May their testimony set us all free.

Encouragement from a mom who launched her 7 children and lived to tell about it. Part 3 in this series of 12.

Are you overwhelmed with choices, expectations, and pressures, trying your best to measure up–yet you still feel as if you're losing ground and missing out on the best parts of your life? You are not alone. As you wade into the refreshing truth of the more­-than-­enough life Jesus offers, you’ll experience the freedom that comes to those who are determined to discover what God can do through a soul completely in love with Him.

My new song "Known" is really meaningful to my faith journey. My desire is that one day we will all be willing to walk from hopelessness to hope, from hurt to healing, from the struggle to surrender—that we will look around the room, beneath the cross, seeing each other and hearing Jesus tell us that we're not alone. Thank you for joining me on this journey. -Tauren Wells
