Welcome to 'On the Path' with Cheryl Nembhard!

A podcast filled with encouragement and inspiration to ignite you in your faith, push you in your purpose, and remind you of exactly who God’s called you to be! This week we have a very special episode with Grammy-nominated musician and author Jack Mooring, formerly from the band, Leeland.

Jack is the author of Portrait of God: Rediscovering the Attributes of God through the Stories of His People, a powerful new book that paints a vibrant picture of who God is by drawing from the lives of men and women throughout church history. From Augustine to Kathryn Kuhlman to William and Catherine Booth, Jack reveals how their encounters with God’s attributes—holiness, compassion, faith, and more—can help us rediscover our wonder and trust in His unchanging character today.

In this heart-to-heart conversation, we dive into:

• Why the Christian life is more about remembering than learning
• How to hold onto God’s goodness when doubts and storms come
• Jack’s candid journey through depression and what helped him persevere
• Stories from church history that show us God’s nature in action
• How Portrait of God can strengthen the faith of both new and seasoned believers

This episode is for anyone who’s ever struggled to see God clearly, felt distant from His presence, or longed to be reminded of His unshakable character. Prepare to be encouraged, equipped, and invited into a deeper encounter with the God who never changes.
