As a culture we are not good at reality. We are good at hiding it, faking it, denying and escaping it, but good ole’ reality…we’re not so good at. This week’s song, “Come As You Are” by Crowder forced me to evaluate my own reality and reminded me of a lesson I learned recently.
Of course, it also sent me searching through Scripture where we meet a hopeless fellow often referred to as “The Prodigal Son”.
On this episode I discuss:
- A story about an artist and a beggar
- It’s okay NOT to be okay
- “Necessary Endings” by Dr. Henry Cloud
- Awareness of hopelessness is what finally causes people to wake up, realize that an ending must occur and finally feel energized to do it
- The Lost Son and how he had to get to the place of hopelessness in order to make a change and return to his father – Luke 15:11-32
