The Redeemed Man

God Has a New Story for You

Paul Amos Season 7 Episode 35

Abandoned by his father and sexually abused as a pre-teen, Jim Miner’s life was one of brokenness, infidelity, and hopelessness. “All I wanted to do,” he remembers of hitting rock bottom, was to “die in the darkest, dankest, stinkiest, ugliest corner of a back alley off of Bourbon Street.” It was the grace of God, he says, that taught him how to let go—of his sexual obsessions and his long-simmering resentments, both of which were eating him up inside. Now this once hopeless individual is leading small men’s groups, both in person at his church in Iowa and online with The Redeemed. Jim bravely shares his story with Nate Dewberry and our listeners this week, offering life lessons, reassurance, and many kind words for the men he leads in his groups—men whom he calls, with tears in his eyes, his “heroes.”
