Escape the Lie
When Jesus told His followers, I will not leave you as orphans. I will come to you. (John 14:18), He was referring to an ongoing relationship with a loving Father. But Satan s deceptive tactics block most Christians from the lives God intended. Escape the Journey to Freedom from the Orphan Heart uses powerful, biblical teaching about the three voices, identity in Christ, and the orphan heart along with compelling true-life examples to help readers identify and renounce the orphan heart s crippling wounds and move into abundant life. Walker Moore provides answers for the deep-seated problem known as the orphan heart. He also discusses the destruction brought by the orphan heart that dupes its unwitting host into a fatherless existence. He crafts a compelling analysis of the relationship God desires to have with each person that would set one free from the lies of Satan. This book consistently points readers toward hope in Christ and the freedom gained by overcoming the pain of our past.

Escape the Lie: Journey to Freedom from the Orphan Heart by Walker Moore with Marti Pieper
The most I can say about this book is “Thank you.” Moore and Pieper have introduced me to a symptom that has plagued me and probably everyone I know. Well, actually, I already knew the symptom, but they have given it a name, a definition, a reason for its being and the path to escape it.
The therapeutic terminology, Moore explains, is Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD). Moore found it most obvious among orphans. They develop a self-protection against rejection. RAD symptoms can range from believing they are worthless so they never have higher expectations getting disappointed to being overbearing toward others to ward off being challenged. The Orphan Heart.
Recognizing the lies spoken into each of our lives revealed how much we all have the heart of an orphan at work in us. We have developed our own reactions to lies about our skills and worth. Our habitual responses keep us from experiencing the freedom and abundant life Jesus came to give. If you’ve ever wondered why you respond to situations the way you do, this book may have the answer for you. Discover the lie. Defeat it. Enjoy new freedom.
