Inspired... with Simon Guillebaud

Arthur White had it all - a great wife, healthy kids, a successful business, a villa in Spain - as well as being four-time World Powerlifting Champion. But when someone handed him a pill in the gym to speed his recovery, it was a slippery slope to addiction, infidelity, and losing it all. By all accounts, he should be long dead, but three decades after a remarkable encounter, he’s still fighting fit, (re)married to the same woman, and sharing his story far and wide. Listen here:

‘Lifting the Darkness: Thirty Years on the Road with Tough Talk’ has just come out and is a great read.
🚩 Content warning: Contains discussion of suicide attempts.

David’s unexpected story of being a gay activist discovering Jesus is told in his book ‘A War of Loves’. Now an academic at Oxford University, he is living out his call to obedience to Jesus as a celibate gay Christian - a life-script nobody in their wildest imaginations would have predicted.

This was soooo good, it just blew me away! Russ Parker saw stunning fruit almost immediately after his dramatic teenage encounter with Jesus. That propelled him into a life of radical witness across many nations, from reconciliation in Northern Ireland to preaching from the platform where Martin Luther King Jr delivered his final sermon. Russ focuses on listening to the inner voice of the Spirit, healing, and reconciliation. You won’t want it to end, it’s such a beautiful listen!

This conversation covers Michele’s costly conversion from Judaism, the four-year wait for her lovemate to recognise she was the one, her fruitful gospel ministry with youth in Manchester and then during the miners’ strike in an impoverished community, her successful media career before working in the NHS, her writing of many books, her now living with chronic pain, and more. She’s feisty, larger than life, and a great storyteller!

John Eldredge is an author, counselor and teacher. His books have sold over 16 million worldwide. Wild at Heart as a ministry has exploded in impact, but I love how John has followed God’s instruction to keep the organisation small and give it all away. Staying humble, rooted in community, and listening to God’s voice have been the keys to longevity in fruitful ministry through the decades where many others have been taken out. Who indeed would have guessed that this former drug-fueled delinquent raised by alcoholics, kicked out of school, and with a criminal record, would be transformed into a healing voice used to lead many people across the globe back to a healthy relationship with their heavenly Father? Only God! There’s lots of gold in this great conversation!
