Dr. Minirth, President of Minirth Clinic says, “Bound To Be Free is an exceptional book – Theologically correct, psychologically warm, physiologically health producing. I recommend it with enthusiasm. Christians around the globe need this book. Read it and be healed. This book is riveting, but more important, it is life transforming!”
Learn to live in FREEDOM. Free of the consequences of pain inflicted upon us, and pain inflicted by ourselves. God’s Word tells us true freedom is found in HIS word and presence. Christ’s desire is for believers to be transformed, not just saved.
Bound To Be Free leads believers step-by-step through God’s healing process and transformation. The study focuses heavily on scripture, as the only path to lasting restoration, and leads believers through the process of identifying and overcoming hindrances. This enables believers to achieve power in their daily Christian walk and show the transforming power of Christ in the church.
Our Father knows each person’s story. He knows how each one of us can overcome the pain and disappointment in our lives. While some numb the pain others walk through the fire, allowing The Refiner to mold us into the precious treasure He created us to be. Take a step in your journey to victory today

Q&A with Marta
BTB: Tell us a little about your research methods.
Marta: The Bible is always my primary source and from that, I also research the original meanings of the Greek or Hebrew from the English text. My last two Bible studies incorporated the foundation of American history and the genesis of English Christian history, so I utilized biographies and other secular materials in my research of those topics.
BTB: What does a typical writing day look like? Are you structured or informal in your writing schedule?
Marta: Writing is not a daily habit for me. I have a full schedule as the founder of a ministry and a Christian radio host. When God places a topic on my heart, I make time to write until the project is completed.
BTB: How long does it usually take to write your books — from first outlines/drafts to final edits.
Marta: I am fond of saying, “It takes a lifetime,” since every Bible study has come from the deep examination of His Word for twenty-six years. Each has taken a different amount of time. While writing, the process, not time, is most important. My studies are organized by weeks and days. Each completed day is reread and rewritten. At weekly editing meetings my team works through each of those days. I then work on any rewrites. After this daunting process, I teach the study to a small group as a test for fine-tuning. Finally, it goes to the publisher. It can take twelve to eighteen months to finish a study. But this investment produces the best product available.
BTB: Readers always want to know what is next for an author. Do you have any works in progress you can share?
Marta: Time permitting, I have an endless number of books to write! Currently, I am involved with two projects. One is a collaborative devotional with hosts from my internet radio station. The second is an end-times Bible study focused on the events leading to the rapture of the church, the tribulation and second coming of Christ.
BTB: Please share with my readers a little bit about your life leading up to the present.
Marta: My first mission trip took me to Romania in 1997 and it changed my life forever. The next year I left corporate America for a church planting organization. I traveled with American churches to churches in foreign lands to establish churches and for discipleship. Marshall, my husband of twenty-six years, and I moved to Romania in 2002 to help start a church and work with street children. After seven years God called me to write Bible studies and to teach and train others to study the Word. GraceAndTruthRadio.World was launched in 2018 to provide a platform for people with biblical messages to reach others for Christ.
Thanks for sharing with us today, Marta!
