Joe Beam carries the reader through the many needed reminders and revelations of being released,forgiven, and restored of legal and personal guilt. For anyone who carries the deep scars and feelings of guilt, this book gives insight and direction to be freed from the cage of guilt - that Christ redeemed us from. Must read for those in captivity, and for those who minister and counsel those in this prison.
