Why the fortune of brokenness can enhance your relationship with God
In my conversation with Reverend Matthew Hogan today, we explore some themes about Christianity that exist, but aren’t the things Instagram posts are made of. These are hard and heavy topics, but important ones as we fully explore the faithfulness and love of God, especially outside of our American perspective.
Reverend Matthew Hogan has over 30 years of experience in ministry and counseling, having worked as a pastor, interim pastor, and counselor. He is a Certified Temperament Pastoral Counselor, Licensed Pastoral Counselor, and is a member of the National Christian Counselors Association. Currently, he runs Grace for Individual and Family Therapy (GIFT) through which he provides faith-based therapy for individual clients, couples, and groups of any faith background online.
We discuss:
- The Christian "elephant in the room" and what it is
- The fortune of brokenness Matthew and his wife experienced in early adulthood and how that impacted his relationship with God
- God’s faithfulness and presence even as we weave in and out of our focus on him
- Encouragement for the person who things “I’ve been away so long I don’t think God would want me to come back”
- Authentically rejoicing even when we don't feel like it
