Experiencing Joy with Chip Ingram & When Your Identity is Shaken by Pain with Christopher Reynolds

Today, on Karl and Crew, we kicked off our weekly theme, “It's Complicated!” filled with amazing stories! Christopher Reynolds, Chip Ingram, and Dr. Jim Coakley joined us. Christopher Reynolds, a traveling evangelist and author of “Bear Through It,” shared how a life-changing accident challenged his identity and taught him how God can use pain for growth and purpose. Then, Chip Ingram, CEO & Teaching Pastor of Living on the Edge, talked about the joy that comes from having intimacy with God. Afterward, Dr. Jim Coakley, Professor of Bible at Moody Bible Institute and author of “14 Fresh Ways to Enjoy the Bible,” talked about how Scripture helps us understand and express our emotions while trusting God through them. We then turn to our listeners and ask, “What emotion were you good at hiding from people?” You can hear the highlights of today’s program on the Karl and Crew Showcast.
