inFreedom has at its core, a fundamental belief that God is love and that he pours out his love to all.
God exists in three persons: the Creator, who is the author and giver of all love, healing and wholeness, known as a perfect, loving father; his Son, Jesus, who showed this unfathomable, all-encompassing love in action by showing us a different way to live and making a path for us into this love; and the Holy Spirit, who travels this path of love, connecting our mortal selves to God's immortal presence.
Why Freedom?
Once, while Jesus was walking the earth, it is reported that he read out a prophecy from old writings that declared
‘The Spirit of the Lord is on me,
because he has anointed me
to proclaim good news to the poor.
He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners
and recovery of sight for the blind,
to set the oppressed free,
The writings were by a prophet, Isaiah, and this is recorded in the bible. This is the work Jesus does on earth and it is his purpose for all of us: that we would be free of all forms of poverty, imprisonment, blindness and oppression.

HEALED
Beyond survival, living life to the full as God intended: fully Human and fully whole. We walk the walk and continue the journey not as one who has won the race but as fellow travellers being healed.
WHOLE
to be transformed by the renewing of our minds. As the kintsugi pot shows its scars in its beauty, so we know that we are a result of our trials and traumas and our brokenness is part of our whole.
