#29 Adrian Plass – From Sacred Diaries to Shadow Doctors, embracing humor and honesty in faith and life [EN]

What happens when faith, humor and honesty collide? In this
episode, host Peter Statz meets beloved English bestselling
author Adrian Plass, known worldwide for "The Sacred Diary of
Adrian Plass Aged 37¾" and "The Shadow Doctor", to talk about
laughter, struggles and how God's presence is real even when we
walk through shadows.


 


Adrian shares stories full of warmth, wit and wisdom, from sacred
diaries and personal breakdowns to moments of unexpected grace.
Together they explore how honesty can build bridges, why
questions and fractures are part of our journey of faith and why
it matters that God is not only good but also nice.


 


If you have ever wrestled with brokenness, searched for grace in
difficult times or longed to hear God's "big Yes" in your own
story, this conversation will encourage, challenge and make you
smile.
