Kyria Emphasizes the Essential Role of Confession in the Life of Faith
Carol Stream, IL March 1, 2010—Confession is essential to living a life characterized by transformation and joy as highlighted in the March issue of the digizine available today.
Editor Ginger Kolbaba says, "This month's issue of the Kyria digizine is on the spiritual discipline of confession—the practice of acknowledging our brokenness to God and others so that we can be restored to the life that is truly life. We hope to help women understand that showing our brokenness makes our restoration and wholeness that much more precious and enticing to a world that needs God."
Featured is an interview with Anne Jackson, blogger and the author of an upcoming book on confession. Many Christians do not confess their sin to God and others out of fear and shame. Jackson, however, says that we have to do the opposite of what fear tells us to do to live in freedom. Her interview describes her own experiences with confessing and how it is the beginning of transformation.
The March issue of the Kyria digizine is available to members and features the following pieces:
Coming Clean
Author Anne Jackson talks about why confession really is good for the soul, what makes it so difficult, and how true power lies within opening up to others.
