Actually Finding Jesus In the Land of My Captivity
Manage episode 405977547 series 3475886
Ever noticed that the times you've spent intimately searching for and finding Jesus have been in your times of darkest tragedy and crisis? We're taking a page from St. Patrick's playbook on the UN-Perfect Podcast today.
Welcome to Episode #32! I'm your host, Shelly Snead, and today I'll be talking to you about more of the hoodlum Snead kids' shenanigans - cause those are always entertaining - but also a little St. Patrick history lesson I found quite convicting. He has quite a story of basking in the presence of God - and realizing He probably would never have done so if he'd remained a free man.
"There are times when captivity is not a thief, but a benefactor."
