It's easy to read about someone else's knotted up life but it's hard to uncover the knots in our own lives.  Will Chenault understands the power of our stories and why they matter in light of God's larger story. You will appreciate Will's practical insight and wisdom as he leads us down a road that isn't as scary as we thought.  

If we don't tell our stories, our stories tell us.  But we can't name what we don't know. We have to identify where the harm happened so the healing can begin.  God wants to take those broken, shattered pieces and make something more beautiful than it was before.  We are so excited to share this episode with you.  

"God is working.  He's restoring.  He's bringing hope.  I wouldn't do this work if I didn't deeply believe that.  But we have to do the hard work. It's a holy calling, entering into the stories of others with a view towards redemption."

"If we don't do the work, a lot of Christians walk around with giant heads and shriveled hearts. We can know doctrine but not know how it impacts our relationships."

"We cannot be spiriually mature unless we are emotionally mature." Peter Scazzero, author of The Emotionally Healthy Church.

"I don't know where to cauterize the wound unless I know where you are bleeding."

Will is now affectionately known as "Mr. Amanda" (listen to Amanda Chenault's Rambling Episode 74)
