Freedom from Bondage: Pride Versus Virtue Tanisha Hall

Freedom from Bondage is a story about a young woman searching for her identity by engaging in destructive intimate relationships. Although these relationships did nothing for her self-esteem, she continued to search for men that seemed to possess the same domineering and chauvinistic characteristics which served not only as a distraction, but a mask which enabled her to avoid facing her own faults and weaknesses. Because he was well dressed, looked distinguished, possessed all the right credentials, had a decent job and let's not forget his calling into the ministry, she thought he had it all together. Oh but she was so wrong. Although he looked the part he didn't possess the characteristics of a christ-like man, he was merely a wolf in sheep clothing and she was so easily caught up in his web of deception. Freedom from Bondage illustrates the common mistakes women make when engaging in relationships. It challenges women to explore past relationships in which they identify how the relationship began and ended in order to measure characteristics of commonality. Freedom from Bondage is a powerful resource women can refer to when dating. It talks about the common red flags women ignore, and the weaknesses they possess. These issues more times than none tie women to men with the same brokenness. This novel teaches women how to be single at heart, divorcing past relationships, and striving to be true women of virtue. This is a story of a woman's journey from a prideful and destructive past to a triumphant and virtuous future.
