The Dream That Died and the God Who Didn't Stop It


Listen Later

"By any human measure, Jesus' life was an abject failure." If he ever dreamed of a successful career in ministry, or of being hailed as king. That dream died. 

What about you? Which of your dreams have died?

Brandon, Liv, and Matt explore a hard but hopeful truth: God is in the habit of making good things come out of death. This episode digs into Brandon's article of the same name, wrestling with what it means when God doesn't stop the death of our dreams.

We talk about the importance of grieving, how to sit with people in their pain without trying to fix it, and why the pattern of Jesus' life, from failure to cross to resurrection, is the pattern for ours too.

If your life feels like a failure, if you're stuck in a season that doesn't make sense, this one's for you. God's not done yet.
