10: God Get Me Out Of This And I'll Do Anything
Today’s Guest: Dave Connolly
Dave Connolly is the co-founding pastor of Frontline Church in Liverpool. Until recently, he was the pastor of Toxteth Tabernacle. Now he spends most of his time supporting church leaders, pastoring the pastors, as well as hanging out with his amazing and beautiful wife and family!
Here’s a summary of this week’s story:
Dave grew up in Toxteth, Liverpool in the 60s. In a street of 150 houses, 20 of them were Dave's relatives. He had a lot of behavioral issues growing up. He lacked aspiration and inspiration and grew up quite a broken kid. The first time he heard the word hope was when he ended up in Sunday School by accident one day. Later in life, the seed bore fruit when he tried to rob his brother but ended up becoming a Christian!
Despite of his hopeless circumstances, God made ways for him to encounter the love of God and live a life of hope and purpose. There were challenges along the way that he had to face such as his nephew being murdered. But through it all, God revealed himself more and more to him.
“Walking with God is an adventure. You'll see things and do things that you could only read about in a book if you go for it, with God.” says Dave.
