Show Notes
On the episode this week: Aaron might be wearing a woman's sweater, and he’s ok with that.
Aaron talks to Jerrad Lopes. Jerrad is former clergy, a podcaster, dad, husband, author, and much more. He likes the weight of a blanket nearly to suffocation. Jerrad talks about his “first crisis” where he was fired from church before an implosion and nearly divorced, and how that set him on the path to healing a stumbling towards Jesus. He confesses that he ministered to avoid his own wounds and learned that God isn’t a business. His journey included a 14-day intensive and lots of counseling to heal and help him be part of a strong family. He now leads retreats, podcasts and walks with other men growing and healing themselves and their families.
