EP 99: When God Meets Us in Our Mess with Nathan Clarkson

In Faith Journey, Podcast, Spiritual Growth by Nathan Clarkson

How easy is it for you to admit, “I’m wrong?”

What about acknowledging you made a mistake?

Or can you make a list of some of your biggest faults?

Some of us may handle these questions better than others, but most men struggle with them, to be sure.

In this episode of the Impactus podcast, Chris chats with Nathan Clarkson, an actor, director, and author who has written a new book called I’m the Worst: How Freedom is Found in Admitting Our Faults.

In this conversation, Chris and Nathan talk about the significant challenges men face in being honest about their failings and weaknesses, and the transformation that God can bring about when we fight those instincts towards self-preservation and are willing to be honest, vulnerable, and trusting of others who can help us.

God desires to meet men in their struggles and their messes. Join us for a fascinating and wide-ranging conversation about how men can invite Him in and find healing and freedom as they do.
