| 0:00.0 | Hi, I'm Susie Larson. Thank you for listening to Susie Larson Live. Faith Radio podcasts are only possible because of your support. So thanks for giving and thanks for sharing with a friend. |
| 0:10.6 | Say, won't he do it? Yes, he will. |
| 0:15.3 | Won't he do it? Yes, he will. He'll take a stone. |
| 0:21.7 | Make it still. |
| 0:23.5 | Yeah, we'll do it. |
| 0:25.8 | Yes, he will. |
| 0:27.7 | Welcome to Susie Larson Live. |
| 0:29.9 | Always so honored to get to spend this time with you. |
| 0:32.3 | In fact, I look forward to bringing you conversations every single day that hopefully inspire you in your faith walk, |
| 0:54.3 | that deepen your understanding of God's Word, and that heightens your awareness of his very real presence in your life. Well, you probably don't know this listening, but I got to just give a shout out to my producer Angela Smith, because she's been in Europe for two weeks and just got back. Today is her first day in the saddle, and I'm telling you, she gets more done before breakfast than most people do it in a whole month. So anybody who wants to shout out, give me a text to welcome Angie back. I missed her so much. And it's so good to have her back with us. Topic now today. You know this. You have a story. And there are stories within your story. snippets of memories that surface once in a while, |
| 1:12.5 | and you kind of wonder why. What's that about? Why do I remember that in such detail? And yet you |
| 1:16.9 | don't think it's significant anyway, yet you keep remembering those parts of your story. You walk |
| 1:21.7 | with God, you pray in faith, you go to church, you read your Bible, yet you may wonder, why do I still struggle with insecurity, |
| 1:30.0 | fear, and a sense of brokenness? And why do these memories keep surfacing for me? If Jesus is |
| 1:35.4 | enough for me, why don't I feel like a healed and whole person? Well, this is the topic of our show |
| 1:40.2 | today, and I will say any friend of Dr. Dan Allenders is a friend of ours. We love Dan. It joins us on the show whenever we can get him. Adam Young joins me today to talk about his book, make sense of your story, why engaging your past with kindness changes everything. We've got five copies to give away today, and I forgot to tell you that cell number, even though you should totally have this in your phone by now. If you want to text Angie's shout out, |
| 2:01.3 | here's the number. Text 877-933-2484. If you want in on the drawing for the book, make sense of your |
| 2:08.9 | story, why engaging your past with kindness changes everything. In a separate text, you text the word book |
| 2:14.9 | to 877-933-2484. Quick announcement before we hear from Adam. If you're |
| 2:21.0 | brand new to the faith, or maybe you've stumbled on the dial, you listen, you're curious, |
| 2:25.2 | but you don't have a walk with Jesus to speak of, but maybe you've got some questions. We'd love to |
| 2:29.6 | help get those answered. We've partnered with the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association. All you |
