Episode 293 - Finding Gospel Hope in Divorce with Barnabas Piper
Listen now
Description
How does the gospel apply in the loss of a marriage? Where can everyone involved find hope after the pain of divorce? Having grown up as a pastor's kid of a world renowned theologian, John Piper, Barnabas Piper knew the right theological answers in life. It was through his own personal journey of pain after an unwanted divorce that led him to a newfound understanding of God's grace and mercy in his hurt and ultimately, his life. Since then, as a pastor, Barnabas has been able to help others through their own feelings of shame and heartache and has pointed them to the ways in which the gospel applies to all. In this honest conversation, Nothing is Wasted guest host, Eric Schumacher sits down with Barnabas to talk about the transition between theological knowledge into a true understanding, what the gospel says to everyone who is affected by a divorce, and how the Church can love people well through the pain of a broken marriage. This episode is for anyone who has walked through or has loved someone who has walked through a divorce as it reminds us all that God's redemptive love and the hope of the gospel applies to every pain we will ever endure.   Website: barnabaspiper.comInstagram: www.instagram.com/barnabaswpiper Facebook: www.facebook.com/bpiper Book: Belong: Loving Your Church by Reflecting Christ to One Anotherhttps://a.co/d/bV3MTag Would you love to help those in your church partner with God to take back their stories of pain and trauma?
