Redemption Songs (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780975292174)

To the committed Christian, redemption means to give up the bondage of sin for a new freedom in Christ, which is so beautiful that it is difficult to articulate, even for the most ardent believer. Dictionary.com defines redemption as the action of regaining or gaining possession of something in exchange for payment or clearing a debt. Merriam-Webster says that redemption is the act of making something better or more acceptance. At some point in our lives, we will find ourselves in need of redemption. There will come a time when an action, word, deed, or perhaps even a thought, will necessitate restoration. Kelley Wooden Stanley helps the reader realize that redemption begins in the heart and soul and expands to the spiritual level. Through her storytelling and her prolific poetry, we learn that redemption is deeply personal and that one must first seek the liberation of her own soul before she can truly forgive another.
