No More Shame
You are meant to live in the freedom and power of who God declares you to be, His beloved creation who bears His image. Shame will try to tell you something different, it will try to steal that truth from you and if it succeeds you will never live the life you were created to live. But no more! Join Dr. Megan Clunan each week as she explores the intersection of psychology and theology to help you live free from shame and in the reality of your true identity.
