Formed by Jesus Podcast

Shame, Healing, Divorce, and Hope | Ryan Mattinen's WITNESS Story

Episode Summary

Welcome to Season 9 of the Formed by Jesus Podcast—our deep dive into the Ninth Practice that’s shaped the trajectory of our church. If you’re new to Passion Creek, our Nine Practices to Make Disciples book is now on Amazon—summarizing the first full run-through of the practices that form us for life between Sundays. In this episode, Trey sits down with Ryan to explore the Witness Practice: sharing your story, inviting others into community, and living a credible, consistent life with Jesus. We talk vulnerability vs. transparency, forgiveness that actually frees, how marriage becomes a living gospel, and why consistency beats intensity in spiritual formation. If you’ve ever wondered how to witness without being weird—or how to heal from bitterness and lead from your real story—this one’s for you. Join our church as we pursue the way of Jesus through 9 practices. To learn more, go to: https://formedbyjesus.com
