019. An Interview with Don Coleman: "Embrace the Death ... There is a Resurrection!"
Show Notes

Don and I think we might have met in the 1990s at Paulea's house, but we aren't sure.   We were all pursuing House Church models and discipleship multiplication.  The awesome thing is that we have maintained the same values for 30 years.

I was reintroduced to Don a year and a half ago, when I moved to Richmond, VA.  We have spent some hours together sitting on his porch, and some drinking coffee at my house.  Every time we get together we laugh and touch deep things in God.  I love his spirituality, focus on Jesus and his love for his city!

Don has connections with a number of different segments of the Body of Christ in Richmond and throughout the state and beyond.  I am always drawn to folks who connect broadly.

In this podcast, Paulea Mooney-McCoy, Don Coleman, and I discuss some of the following topics:

  • The importance of pursuing spiritual ideals
  • Spiritual Fathering
  • The healing power of simple faith
  • The experience of hardship and brokenness in the Church
  • The reality that even though Jesus was perfect - everything around Him was often a mess ... and what that means for us and our faith
  • When you don't know what to do ... when you really don't know what to do ... build an altar and go to God

This is a little longer than some of my podcasts ... but my o my, we connect with God at points along the way!
