Gotta Be Saints

Finding Freedom Part One - The Call


Listen Later

Welcome to the first episode of the Finding Freedom Podcast Series!

I’m so excited to partner with Exodus 90 to bring you this special four-part series on finding true freedom. Over the next four episodes, we’ll explore how to break free from the distractions and idols that keep us from living as the sons and daughters of God. Together, we’ll uncover what it means to embrace the life of freedom Christ offers us.

In this first episode—Part One of our series—we’re diving into The Call

I’m joined by Jamie Baxter, the founder and CEO. Jamie brings his expertise and passion for helping men and women find freedom through a life centered on faith and discipline.

Summary

What Is True Freedom?

We begin by exploring what it means to live in true freedom as sons and daughters of God. Jamie explains how this freedom differs from the world’s view of freedom as “doing whatever I want” and instead focuses on the freedom to live out our God-given identity.

The Origins of Exodus 90:

Jamie shares the inspiring story behind Exodus 90—how it began and the mission that drives it. Rooted in the journey of the Israelites in the Book of Exodus, the program calls participants to break free from the “Egypts” of their lives.

Recognizing Our Identity as Children of God:

Understanding our identity as beloved sons and daughters of God is foundational to breaking free from societal pressures and idols. Jamie explains how this awareness transforms our approach to freedom and strengthens our resolve.

The Role of Prayer, Asceticism, and Fraternity:

Jamie outlines the three pillars of Exodus 90—prayer, asceticism, and fraternity—and how these disciplines work together to help participants find lasting freedom in Christ.

A Call to Take the First Step:

We close by encouraging listeners to take the first step toward true freedom. For men, it might be joining Exodus 90. For women, it could mean identifying areas in their lives where they feel enslaved and seeking Christ’s liberation.

Final Thoughts

Jamie reminds us that true freedom isn’t about doing whatever we want but about living fully as God’s children. He encourages men and women alike to lean on prayer and discipline as tools for breaking free from the world’s distractions and embracing a life of purpose and faith.
