Episode 109 - Mark Batterson
“Blessing” is a word we throw around a lot in church circles. Every pastor has probably preached about it more times than they can count, and Mark Batterson is no exception. He’s even written about it in his newest book, Double Blessing. But what does a blessing actually look like? How do we know what is and isn’t a blessing? And what does it mean to see blessings even in the midst of trials? Mark unpacks all this and beyond in conversation with Davey about blessings, prayer, trials, and more.
“What makes us think that we can become like Christ without going through the same things He did. Without being betrayed by Judas or denied by Peter or tempted by the enemy in the wilderness. ”
“If you’re going through a tough season maybe God is creating a little bit more emotional capacity and then He’s going to use that to use you to help other people.”
