Stories and practical help for walking in freedom
Walking in the newness of Christ
Romans 6:4
When we accept that we are a beloved Child of God, we can relax and begin to embrace our new identity. We have to learn how to live as new creations just as butterflies do when they break free from their cocoon. Learning to walk in the freedom that only Christ offers requires intentionality. In Romans 6 Paul implores us to walk in our new identity:
