Embracing Brokenness

🎙️EP155. The Rest of Your Story: How God Restores What’s Broken — with Greg Lindsey


Listen Later

What happens when a pastor’s life falls apart—and God writes a better story?


In this raw and redemptive conversation, Steve sits down with Greg Lindsey, author of The Rest of Your Story: The Path to the Christian Life You Want, to talk about failure, forgiveness, and the long road to freedom. Greg shares openly about the affair that nearly ended his marriage and ministry—and how Jesus met him in the rubble to begin a rescue that changed everything.


Together, Steve and Greg unpack what it means to live from your story instead of running from it: how God redeems even our deepest failures, why the Church must learn to restore the fallen, and why intimacy with Jesus—not performance—is the true measure of success.


🔹 Facing your past without fear

🔹 How the Church can become a “MAS*H unit” for the wounded

🔹 The danger of identity rooted in performance

🔹 Experiencing—not just knowing—Jesus daily

🔹 Why your story isn’t over because your Author isn’t finished


Greg’s honesty will challenge and comfort you—and remind you that no matter where you’ve been, there’s more to the story God is writing.


🎧 Listen, share, and subscribe for more conversations on healing, identity, and transformation in Christ.
