Has there ever been a time in your life when you say to God,

“I’ve had enough?” I know I have, and my returning guest, Paul Granger talks

about a time when he’s felt this way as well. Join us as we discuss how God becomes

enough for us and gives us rest to continue on a much deeper and more profound

journey than we could ever imagine.

Paul's job is "ambassador of Christ"; anything

else falls under that call.  One of the ways God has invited him to live

out the call to "love God and love others" is through creating

authentic, accessible space for conversation and community, and advocating for

those that may go unseen. This happens through content like the Where did you

see God? Podcast and serving with East End Fellowship and YWAM Virginia. 

He is a husband, father of three, and fan of a good fire pit.

Paul’s latest book is entitled I have had enough: How Elijah kept going when he

had nothing left to give:

“I have had enough, LORD.  Take my life.”

1 Kings 19:4

These are not the words of a weak man, but of the great

prophet Elijah, who after faithfully serving God and seeing Him work, found

himself utterly depleted and hopeless.

Can you resonate?  Have you tried to serve God, only to

find things getting worse?  Have you tried to be faithful, only to find

your actions misinterpreted?  Have you given so much and felt more was

taken in return?

I have, and it is an utterly demoralizing place to be; yet

we can find encouragement in Elijah's story, because the verse above was not

the end.

This short book takes us through the story of Elijah in 1

Kings 17-19, where the ups and downs of his difficult invitations from God can

help us discern how we can keep going when we have nothing left to give.
