We all have problems. Many people today are stuck in unhealthy and unwanted behaviors, thoughts, and relationship patterns. You may have unresolved hurts, live with a constant sense of shame, or struggle with how you see God. It can be easy to feel hopeless or like there's no way out. So how do we overcome our struggles and find health and wholeness?

The truth is that there is hope and there are real answers that can bring lasting freedom. This week on the podcast Jonathan sits down with Josh McDowell and Ben Bennett to discuss their new book Free to Thrive: How Your Hurt, Struggles, and Deepest Longings Can Lead to a Fulfilling Life. Join us this week as we talk about struggles that people are experiencing in the church today and how people are coping, the God-given needs and longings that we all have in common, how Christians can experience healing from unresolved hurts, and encouragement on how to overcome our unwanted behaviors and engage our unmet longings.
