Summary
On the journey of healing and recovery, it can be easy to wonder if things will “always be this way”, or feel like the challenges “will never stop”. The reality is that it often takes more than we expect to go from death to life. While the Bible says that real and lasting transformation is available to us, it can be hard to understand what part we have to play and where God is doing the work.
Jonathan Daugherty, founder of Be Broken Ministries, will tell you true transformation is grace-led. He joins Juli to discuss his new book where he explores and outlines how God uses our pain, restores our identity, and renews us along our healing journeys through the miraculous power of His grace.

| 0:00.0 | Well, hey, friend. Welcome to Java with Julie, hosted by me, Julie Slattery. Let me remind you that this is a listener-supported podcast. It's an outreach of a ministry called Authentic Intimacy, and our goal is to help people navigate sexual issues with a gospel focus. Well, while you're on a journey of healing and trying to find freedom from sin, |
| 0:22.5 | sometimes one of the most challenging aspects can be, how do I find the way forward? I mean, |
| 0:27.5 | you know roughly where you want to be, but you're not 100% sure of how you're supposed to get |
| 0:32.2 | there. What does it take to go from hurting to healed? And how do you go from being bound by sin to really |
| 0:38.9 | feeling free? Well, in today's episode, I'm joined once again by my good friend Jonathan Dardy, |
| 0:45.3 | the president of Be Broken Ministries. Jonathan has written a new book called Grace-based |
| 0:50.3 | transformation. And it's about changing the way we look at healing and freedom. We tend to think |
| 0:55.7 | about healing and freedom from a performance mentality, sort of thinking, what am I doing and what can I |
| 1:01.8 | do to make myself get free? And Jonathan's book really challenges that assumption. While he isn't saying |
| 1:08.0 | that we don't have a part to play, he's saying that the kind of transformation the Bible speaks to is one that relies heavily on the work of the Holy Spirit and is really the evidence of God's grace in our lives. |
| 1:19.7 | So let's head to the coffee shop for my conversation with Jonathan Dardy. |
| 1:26.2 | Well, Jonathan, it is a good day when I see your name on my calendar. |
| 1:30.9 | I always look forward to my conversations with you. |
| 1:33.7 | So welcome back to Jabba with Julie. |
| 1:36.7 | Oh, thanks, Julie. |
| 1:37.6 | It's always just a joy and an honor to be with you. |
| 1:40.4 | So thank you for having me back. |
| 1:41.6 | Yeah, I tell people, and they've heard this on the podcast before, that I really consider you not just a brother, but you. So thank you for having me back. Yeah, I tell people, and they've heard this on the podcast |
| 1:44.6 | before that, I really consider you not just a brother, but you are a brother ministry to authentic |
| 1:50.3 | intimacy. And many, many years ago, God had our paths cross. And we just kind of check in with |
