Are you living in freedom to be authentically who God made you to be or do you put on masks when you leave the home or when you’re around certain people? You will become exhausted, insecure, and lonely if you project something different than who you are, but the real issue is that your children are watching. They will either adopt the masks you wear or call you a hypocrite in the teenage years and stop yearning for your wisdom. Isaac and Angie Tolpin dig into why we tend to wear masks at times and how to truly break free and live in freedom!
