Perfectly Imperfect Podcast With John Strong

Life is loud.  Life is so loud in fact that most people can’t handle silence.  The silence of what is.  You can live your whole life looking neither forward nor backward, protected by the moment.  But some of us don’t have that security blanket.  Our blinders have been removed.  And once removed you begin to see things as they are.  Isolation has propelled many a great man/woman into their destiny.  Conquering isolation “The Wilderness” defined Jesus, just as Andy Dufrain’s character in the Shawshank Redemption is defined by his ability to endure.  We would all love to have 12 devoted Disciples; a friend like Red to walk this road with, narrate our journey.  But we don’t live within the pages of a book or screenplay.  And if you want to get there, you just may have to accept that you’ve got to walk alone.  “When you hit rock bottom moments of happiness don’t exist.”  - John Strong
