Synopsis
We live in a culture that's all about self, becoming the best "me" I can be instead of becoming like Jesus. This me-centered message affects every area of our lives--our friendships, our marriages, even our faith--and it breaks each one in different ways. The self-focused life robs our joy, shrinks our souls, and is the reason we never quite break free of insecurity.<br /><br />In this book, Sharon Hodde Miller invites us into a bigger, Jesus-centered vision--one that restores our freedom and inspires us to live for more. She helps readers <br />- identify the secret source of insecurity <br />- understand how self-focus sabotages seven areas of our lives<br />- learn four practical steps for focusing on God and others<br />- experience freedom from the burden of self-focus<br /><br />Anyone yearning for a purpose bigger than "project me" will cherish this paradigm-shifting message of true fulfillment.

From the Back Cover
"In a culture captivated by self, this book is a must-read."--Christine Caine, founder of A21 and Propel Women
Our me-centered culture affects every area of our lives--our relationships, calling, self-image, even our faith--and it negatively impacts each one. The self-focused life robs our joy, shrinks our souls, and is the reason we get stuck in insecurity.
In Free of Me, Sharon Hodde Miller invites us into a bigger, Jesus-centered vision--one that restores our freedom and inspires us to live for more. Drawing from personal experience and Scriptural insight, Sharon helps readers
· understand how self-focus sabotages seven areas of our lives
· learn four practical steps for focusing on God and others
· experience freedom from the burden of self-focus
If you've been yearning for more than a self-help faith, then this paradigm-shifting message of true fulfillment is for you.
"Sharon spotlights the crippling disease of self-focus and shows us how to break free from its entanglements. If you want to walk in God's life-giving truth, this book will help you do just that!"--Lysa TerKeurst, New York Times bestselling author; president of Proverbs 31 Ministries
"One of the best things for a healthy marriage, workplace, parent situation, or any calling is to realize the world is not orbiting around our axis. True joy is found when we realize there is a bigger story to tell. In Free of Me, Sharon paints this picture more beautifully than anyone I know."--Jefferson Bethke, author of Love That Lasts
