In a world that promotes freedom and liberty, we are captive in a modern-day Egypt. The Prince of the Air writes a cultural script that presents an illusion of liberty—yet ultimately leads to enslavement. Throughout this series, we will attempt to unveil the illusion of liberty that culture promotes and explore the antidote that the ways of Jesus offer. As we unmask that which is enslaving us, may we journey from captivity to freedom.

This week Christy invites us to consider the compelling alternative to a hurried life, found in the rest Jesus offers us. A lifestyle of rest, where his yoke frees us from the burdens of expectations, and we are invited to learn from him.
