Echoes with Colin: I Screamed at God in a Car Park, Then Heard This
Episode 38
Published 15 hours ago
Description
Colin always believed in God. He just never thought it had anything to do with him.
A business owner with 25 staff, a stressful few years behind him and a faith he’d tried to reason his way into, Colin hit a wall. He sat on the bonnet of his car in a Clydebank car park and shouted: “What on earth do you want from me?” The answer came back, loud and clear: “You don’t have to do anything.”
Soon after, he walked into church, and for the first time everything made sense.
In this honest conversation, Colin shares:
- Why believing in God and having faith in God are two different things
- The questions he was afraid to ask, and why they sounded like challenges to Christians
- What forgiveness and being “reborn” really mean
- How his wife and daughter lived their faith without pushing him
- How a daily prayer habit changed the way he leads and handles stress
- The petrol station test that showed him how far he still had to go
- Why he believes God was behind the sale of his business
- How to grow in faith: the community that helped him most
If you’ve ever felt too sceptical, too stretched or too busy to pray, this one is for you.
