Rick Cheatham | Addiction, Losing His Son & A Broken Neck — Finding God Within

Deskripsi

Rick Cheatham has lived through things most men couldn't survive. A sexual addiction that nearly destroyed his marriage. A knock on the door at 4AM telling him his son had been taken from him. And then five months into retirement, he passed out, broke his neck at C4 and C5, and woke up paralyzed from the chest down. And through all of it, he discovered that the most dangerous thing wasn't any of those events. It was the justified resentment he carried silently every single day. In this episode, Rick and Joe go deep on what forgiveness actually costs, why suffering is the path not the punishment, how religion weaponized fear to control people, and what happens when a Christian and a pagan sit down and realize they've been experiencing the exact same God through completely different languages. This is one of the most powerful conversations of this show. Previous episodes with Rick: 103, 104, 108 & 109 🎙️ The Relentless Pursuit Podcast | Episode 192 Stories that need to be told.
