In this episode of Greater Formation & Power, Coach Tom talks with his longtime friend, student and coaching client, André Cajeron about identity, healing, calling, and learning to live with greater authenticity before God.

André shares his journey from Brazil to the United States, the confusion of trying to find his place in ministry, and how God gradually clarified his calling as a worship pastor. He opens up about painful childhood trauma, the long road of healing, and how hidden shame can distort identity and keep people isolated. He also reflects on how music became a deep language of expression, comfort, and connection with God.

This conversation is honest, tender, and full of hope. André also shares powerful spiritual encounters, lessons about fear and authenticity in ministry, and why healing often begins when we bring what is hidden into the light.

If you have ever struggled with shame, fear, confusion about your calling, or the temptation to wear a mask instead of living as your true self, this conversation will encourage you.

In this interview, we explore:

·       healing from trauma and hidden shame

·       identity and authenticity in Christ

·       the long process of emotional and spiritual restoration

·       worship, contemplation, and intimacy with God

·       overcoming fear in ministry

·       holding on to God’s promises in hard seasons

·       how God forms us through pain, truth, and grace

This is a conversation about becoming who God truly made you to be.
