What matters now is what I do know about God, because that has made all the difference in what life is like and how I want to live it.
In the podcast episode 'What We Know About God', Steve C. Ward shares his journey from indifference to embracing spirituality, illustrating how faith can reshape our lives. Ward's reflections are a mix of personal experiences and insights gained through years of research and study. He candidly discusses how life presents challenges—some self-inflicted, others beyond our control—and how these trials can be navigated with hope and faith.
The episode explores the idea that while many strive for control and success, there's often a gap in understanding the deeper workings of life, which can be filled with spiritual knowledge. Ward shares his transformation, recounting how he spent over three decades without much thought of God, only to find himself on a quest for truth in his late thirties. This quest led him to delve into religious texts, reshaping his worldview entirely.
He highlights the comfort found in accepting what we don't know about God and the reassurance that comes from trusting Him as our Lord and Saviour. The discussion is not just about religious doctrine but also about practical life improvement techniques that can prevent addiction and foster joy and purpose. Ward emphasises that knowing God’s love and control offers a peace that transcends understanding, making life’s unpredictability more bearable.
Whether you're grappling with addiction or simply seeking more peace and purpose, this episode provides a thoughtful perspective on the role of spirituality in life’s journey. It encourages you to consider how embracing faith might change your outlook and improve your well-being. Why not explore these insights for yourself?
