Wholehearted Podcast

By: Joel Johnson
  • Summary

  • Welcome to the Wholehearted Podcast. We believe the life you long for, the life better than your dreams, is accessed through the heart. Yet, the truth is that there are splits and cracks in our inner lives, and until these are fully restored—united—made WHOLEHEARTED, we will not be able to fully realize the abundant life Jesus promised his followers. Indeed, God is pouring out more than enough life to abundantly overflow our lives, but like a bucket with holes, our lives rarely have the chance to fill up. As David connected in Psalm 23, the Lord must first “restoreth my soul” before “my cup runneth over” (Psalm 23:3, 5). Much of the abundant life God extravagantly pours out slips through the holes in our heart and soul. I’ve felt it and so have you. Wholeness of heart never arrives as one defining moment. No, becoming wholehearted is a journey. That's why Joel has teamed up with Shannon White, a licensed professional counselor, to help guide you into the wholehearted life you long for. Let's get started!
