This week, Aaron has been thinking about building others up.
Nate and Aaron talk to Matthew LaPine. Matthew is from Nebraska where he is the director of equipping, a father, husband, podcaster, and author. He teaches how growth happens through the eyes of the gardener versus the programer. Matthew ties together a theological understanding of psychology with biblical and church counseling, and scripture being enough. He gives his recommendations on how to understand scripture and other situations. Matthew explains the differences and overlaps of anger, anxiety and depression. Also, a reminder about how important communication and letting others into your narrative are, instead of going dark and running away.
