“[This book]…is a suggestion that we all return to the Word of God and we ask the Holy Spirit what he meant for men and women and we do an assessment of the scriptures that deal with this and the lightbulb comes on and we start to operate in the earth bringing women to their proper place according, not to a secular standard, but according to the Biblical standard.”
Tracy and Rachel are thrilled to honor the changing seasons of spring and renewal by interviewing author and advocate Rebecca Mann Kelly! Rebecca’s new book Return to the Garden: Discovering God’s Original Design for Women offers a powerful invitation to all women to leave places where they are in bondage & captivity and be restored to their true identities. Part memoir, part call to action, Rebecca shares her personal experiences breaking free from damaging cycles of emotional abuse and people-pleasing to embrace the total freedom of being a beloved daughter of God. Encouraging a contextualization of modern misogyny, patriarchy, and feminism through the notion of the curse set forth in the Biblical book of Genesis, Rebecca reminds listeners that Jesus Himself offered a countercultural, radical form of love to both men and women. Rebecca and Tracy examine cycles of manipulation and control within unhealthy relationships; Rachel and Rebecca discuss with relief that God is not an angry authority figure waiting to punish, but rather a loving Creator who craves relationship with His children. All three women collectively lament Daylight Savings Time and the general lack of sleep that follows.
