About

"An incredibly helpful book for anyone longing to break out of the bondage of sin and doubt and be liberated to walk by faith into a life that is much bigger than they could have imagined."--Paul Baloche, worship pastor and songwriter of "Open the Eyes of My Heart" and "Your Name"

At the moment we believe, Christ delivers us from the prison of sin. But instead of walking out into the clear, brisk air of freedom, we often turn back to the dank, suffocating cell, pull the door closed behind us, and then try to find our way out again by our own power.

This is not how it's supposed to be. We need someone stronger than us to release us from the prison of sin. Enter Jesus, the liberating king.

With passion and purpose, worship pastor Stephen Miller calls us to draw near to Christ in worship, allowing his Word and the Holy Spirit to loose our chains by exposing the lies that imprisoned us in the first place. When we do, we see everything more clearly--from the sinking sand of our man-made security to the solid rock of Jesus's unshakable power. Miller shows that holy living is within our grasp when we keep our eyes and our adoration on the one who was sent not only to save us but also to make us into new creations.

"An encouraging contemplation of how the gospel overcomes our sin by showing us all that Jesus is and does for us. Christians will be encouraged by this book to further pursue Christ in the hope of glory."--Russell Moore, president, Southern Baptist Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission  

"Stephen Miller is a worshiper. Not a detached-from-real-life worshiper, but a man who integrates the 'nasty now and now' with the beauty of God's future. In Liberating King, he leads us on a journey to encounter a God who brings freedom to ordinary people just like us."--Darrin Patrick, lead pastor of The Journey St. Louis; vice president of Acts 29; chaplain to the St. Louis Cardinals
