Pruned with Ryan Shieh

Episode 40: Limping with God (ft. Chad Bird)


Listen Later

Sometimes life just feels like one breaking season after another - we lose our job, our marriage is falling a part, and we don't see a light at the end of the tunnel. But what if God's greatest blessings in our life only come after his greatest breakings? What if our valley seasons are the very things that produce the mountaintop experiences? In this week's episode, Ryan is joined once again by Chad Bird, who walks us through the story of Jacob as he wrestles with God and challenges us to lean deeper into our own need for Christ's strength.

Chad Bird is an author, writer, and Scholar in Residence at 1517. He has served as a pastor, professor, and guest lecturer in Old Testament and Hebrew, as well as contributing articles to Christianity Today, The Gospel Coalition, Modern Reformation, The Federalist, Lutheran Forum, and other journals and websites.
