Episode 19 - Aaron Niequist - So what's the deal with a practice-based faith?

The GoodCast

It was so good to have Aaron Niequist drop in to the podcast to talk through the value of a practice-based faith.
God has been at work since the beginning of creation and Aaron speaks of this work as a river, a river that we are invited to not only believe exists, but we are invited into it. To wade in it and participate with God in the healing of the world.
Aaron discovered a practice-based faith years ago when the limits of his own faith experience left him feeling spiritually empty, Niequist got to the point where he began to even question his beliefs. It was through the help of discovering a practice-based faith that he was able to see great healing take place in his life. He began to swim with God to bring healing to others then too.
