Living Free w/ James Early | Ep 97
Bible teacher and prison-ministry leader James Early joins Jill to unpack a shame-free path back to Jesus. James shares how the cross and resurrection secure real freedom, why your identity as God’s child matters more than your worst mistakes, and how total surrender becomes a daily mindset. He tells a powerful prison-ministry story of a woman who finally got to ask hard questions and how she found hope, restored relationships, and new life. Together, they shift from debates to discipleship: try one step from Matthew 5–7 this week and watch what God does. If you’ve wondered whether you’re truly forgiven, or you’re tired of carrying what Jesus already carried, this episode offers language, practices, and courage to start fresh in Him.
And as always, we start off the episode with what is bringing us joy and we know you will be so encouraged by this conversation. Listen free on Apple or Spotify, and join us on Patreon for an extended version of this episode as well as exclusive content!
