Free from Sin: A Conversation with Sister Morena Behrendorff

What does it really mean to be free from sin? In this heartfelt February episode of National Women's Ministry, we sit down with Sis Morena, pastor's wife at Apostolic Life Church Adelaide, for an honest conversation about freedom, forgiveness, and faith.

Sis. Morena opens up about her journey with God, sharing vulnerable moments and reminds us that "progress doesn't always look like moving forward; sometimes it looks like refusing to retreat."

In this episode, we explore:

• What "free from sin" truly means in daily life
• How to move forward when guilt lingers after repentance
• The power of daily repentance and spiritual disciplines
• Navigating seasons when the enemy tries to convince you God has abandoned you
• Why worship becomes obedience, and obedience becomes freedom

Sister Morena's anchor scripture—"Greater is He who is within me than he who is in the world" (1 John 4:4)—carried her through her darkest season, and she shares practical wisdom on prayer, fasting, and standing firm on God's promises.

Whether you're feeling stuck in a cycle, struggling with shame, or simply need a reminder that your position in Christ never changes—this conversation will encourage your heart.

Key Scripture: Romans 6:18 - "Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness."
