Publisher's summary

Pastor, Bible teacher, and women's ministry leader Dr. Jackie Greene encourages you to cast off counterfeit living and live freely in God! He's already given you permission to live an authentic life—what are you waiting for?

A self-described "fast-talking, fiery, anointed preacher," Dr. Jackie is the copastor of Forward City Church with her husband and Grammy-nominated recording artist Travis Greene. She's on a mission to spread the gospel and let women everywhere know that God has given them all the permission they need to live an abundant life in him.

After years of struggling with people-pleasing, daddy issues, and living unauthentically, Dr. Jackie had a revelation that God had designed her precisely the way he wanted her—quirks and all. That revelation changed her life! And she wants it to change her readers' lives too.

Through her popular Permission Conferences, Permission World Facebook group, newly launched podcast, Permission Talk, and Dig Deep Bible studies, Dr. Jackie reaches thousands of women. In Permission to Live Free she encourages listeners to embrace the truth of who they are as God's precious daughters, believing that they "are born an authentic, choice treasure, fashioned by the hand of God."

Permission to Live Free will show listeners how to recognize the seven signs of a woman who's not yet living with permission:

  • She fails to prioritize a vibrant personal relationship with God.
  • She clings to worldly things that fail to give her worth.
  • She does not allow God to transform her mind.
  • She does not fellowship with those who affirm who she really is.
  • She clings to her own will over God's will.
  • She ignores the hurts of her past.
  • She settles for "good enough."

As she reveals the importance of recognizing and taking hold of what God says is true about them, Dr. Jackie challenges women to rise above and let go of behaviors that hinder them from living in the fullness of who God uniquely designed them to be. And she calls them to live free from the world's constraints, remembering that God has already given them the keys to unlock what is inside them. Permission is granted. No more counterfeit living. You were made for more!

It gives life and “PERMISSION”

I liked how Dr.Jackie used relatable characters and authentic situations that I can learn from. I was so encouraged to just be the “God created me” I haven’t finished an entire book in a long time but this was hard to stop listening to. I’m grateful you shared and continue to share. The freedom in “Solom” just went up a notch🙌🏽

Excellent book, powerful message!

If you have followed Dr Jackie’s ministry for any amount of time you know of her passion and relentlessness toward preaching and loving this message. Her narration of it is icing on the cake and I enjoyed every step of the journey!

10 outta 10!!

I’ve read through this book a few times now and I have felt ALL of the things!! Whew!

This book is a mirror and a key to unlock several doors to freedom. You can’t be afraid to face what’s standing between you and those doors and you definitely can’t be afraid of what’s on the other side when it’s opened (trust me it’s great, sis).

Permission to Live Free has reminded me to continuously do the work! I must always see myself the way that God sees me. One of the biggest takeaways was regarding worthiness. Be firmly planted in the fact that we are not fighting FOR freedom but God has already made it available to us; just receive it and walk in it boldly because we are WORTHY!

It’s never too late to begin the permission journey! Let's goooo!!

Not Just a One Time “Read”!! 🔥🔥🔥

We overcome by the blood of The Lamb and the word of our testimony!!! …and Dr. Jackie’s testimony continues to help so many women OVERCOME their struggles with living the life God designed for them by giving them PERMISSION to be automatically who God created them be!! I loved this book and will be listening again…and again!

Outstanding!

Dr. Jackie is the example of Permission! The stories here compel us to walk into freedom. From her personal testimony to reading the book in her voice we are not just told to live in Permission but she is showing us the way. Grateful for this new freedom!

This book will change the trajectory of your life!!

You NEED this book. In this book, Dr. Jackie shares her heart, her real life experience, and the blueprint on how she now lives in complete FREEDOM. I always appreciate Dr. Jackie’s authenticity each time she speaks. If you’re hesitating on if you should get this book, just do it. It will change your life. It has changed mine.

This book includes reflection questions that help you slow down and reflect. This would make a great solo or small group read.

Also, what author do you know who reads their book in their own voice!? Dr.Jackie does and let me say she’s done a phenomenal job 🔥🔥


Overall, I would totally recommend this book.

LIBERATING!

"Free people FREE PEOPLE," Dr. Jackie Greene! Thank you for being authentic and allowing God to use you to help free others from bondage! I LOVE this book!!!! I'll keep it in my aresenal for spiritual warfare! "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places" (Ephesians 6:12, KJV). "Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed" (John 8:36, NKJV). FREEDOM IN CHRIST JESUS!

Awakening!

This book reveals so much about myself until it was just uncanny. it was enough to spark so many things in me that I realized I still need to change in my spiritual life and I thank God for that. What an awesome woman of God Dr Jackie Greene is and I'm thankful God has chosen to use her in such a powerful way to help women get intentional with Jesus.❤️❤️❤️
