#98: Poems of Disappointment and Discovery (with David Tensen)

We never want to go through those valleys, the breakdown, but what you find at the bottom of the ocean… is you... is God.... is life.
— David Tensen

My guest on the show this week is poet David Tensen. Once upon a time, David was the worship director at a megachurch… then he led a large inner healing prayer ministry… then his life fell apart and he started writing poetry. David recently released his first book The Wrestle: Poems of Divine Disappointment and Discovery. We talked all about breakdown, disappointment and surprising joy. David read a few of his poems for us—if you’ve ever experienced your life falling apart then this will be a blessing for your heart’s journey.
