About this listen
“Ryan Wekenman is a trusted voice for anyone hoping to deepen their self-awareness and become a stronger person of faith.”—Annie F. Downs, New York Times bestselling author of That Sounds Fun
Do you ever feel like it’s your job to hold the whole world together? Are you tired of overthinking every social interaction or worrying that you’re not enough? In Free Me from Me, Ryan Wekenman invites you on a transformative journey from the shackles of self-centeredness to a life centered on God.
Through engaging anecdotes and practical advice, Wekenman reveals how living with self at the center creates unrelenting pressure he calls the “me-maze,” while placing Christ at the center brings true rest for the soul. This journey is not about bashing yourself; it’s about unlocking your immense potential as a human created in the image of God.
With humor and honesty, Wekenman explores the theological, psychological, and cultural reasons behind our self-centered tendencies. He encourages us to let go of the weight we were never meant to carry with this simple yet powerful prayer: Lord, free me from me.
If you’re struggling to escape the pressures of modern life, Free Me from Me will help you embrace the peace, purpose, and joy waiting for you when you remember that God is at the center of the story and that you can find rest for your soul.
Critic Reviews
“Ryan Wekenman is a trusted voice for anyone hoping to deepen their self-awareness, pursue emotional and spiritual growth, and become a stronger person of faith.”—Annie F. Downs, New York Times bestselling author of That Sounds Fun
“You need to read this book! Ryan Wekenman has a crazy ability to explain complex theological topics in simple and practical ways. In a world full of opinions about who you are, Free Me from Me is going to help you understand who God says you are and experience the amazing freedom that comes with living a God-centered life!”—Shawn Johnson, pastor and bestselling author of Kiss the Fire and Attacking Anxiety
“Free Me from Me is a gift. Ryan Wekenman confronts our culture’s hyper-fixation on the self and gently restores God to the center—where peace actually becomes possible. For the sake of sanity, please read this book.”—Kory Miller, Christian music artist, songwriter, and worship leader at Red Rocks Church
“Free Me from Me is not written for the faint of heart. It is courageous in its transparency and asks as much from the reader. Ryan Wekenman’s profound vulnerability invites—perhaps even insists upon—the kind of bravery that true transformation requires: the humility to be lovingly decentered, and the courage to imagine the grace and emerging glory of a life freed from the exhausting burden of self.”—Jeffrey Tacklind, author of The Winding Path of Transformation and pastor of Little Church by the Sea, Laguna Beach
