If you’ve thought to yourself at any point during this crazy season, “I just wish I could sit down with an older, wiser sage who’s been walking this whole life & faith thing out way longer than I have"…… Well, we’re making your wish come true today. It just doesn’t get any better than our wonderful guest this week …

On today’s episode, we’re chatting with America’s beloved pastor, teacher, and New York Times Best Selling author, Max Lucado.  Max has been in full time ministry for over 40 years, he’s written over 100 books, with 130 million copies in print, his projects have been featured everywhere from USA Today, Fox News, Larry King, and many more.

Max shares with us how to find hope and healing in the mist of so much chaos and anxiety, the importance of feeding our faith rather than our fears, and how we as the Church can begin to view this season as an opportunity to rise up and be the CHURCH we are all called to be.

Wooh, this was one for the books, guys! We were definitely blown away by Max’s humility, authenticity and all around compassion and kindness. We pray this will encourage you as it did us. Listen in.

A few favorite quotes from today’s episode:

“This is the time for the church to stand up!”

“Here’s the question we all need to be asking, ‘God, what are you saying to us through this?’ Each one of us could hear a personal answer to that question.”

“What we may find out through all of this is that we’ve been putting our trust in the wrong place.”

“Every generation has to have its own encounter with grace.”

“If my people, who are called by name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”

2 Chronicles 7:14
