It\u2019s another thing to have to live it.<\/p>\n<p>This week on Mature Me, I sat down with one of my friends and heroes Joel Houston. We had such an honest conversation about stepping away from the platform, wrestling with disappointment and finding God in the middle of unanswered questions.<\/p>\n<p>Joel has helped so many of us put words to our worship through Hillsong UNITED. He shares how he felt closer to God alone than in some of his most intimate moments on stage. The very things he\u2019d written songs about, he found himself walking through.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s hard to say \u201cI don\u2019t know\u201d when people expect you to have the answers. But we can bring our questions to God. We don\u2019t have to have it all figured out to come to Him.<br \/>\nIf you\u2019re navigating a season where your faith feels more like a wrestle, I believe this conversation will encourage you.<\/p>\n<p>Tune in tonight at 7:30 PM on the Rich Wilkerson Jr. YouTube Channel. \ud83d\udd17<\/p>\n<p>Stay tuned to all of Rich\u2019s latest content: https:\/\/www.richwilkersonjr.com<\/p>\n<p>Listen to this episode on Spotify: https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/show\/5irnf5xVweBzylMB7L12lM?si=c1fa4ecc659e420e&amp;nd=1&amp;dlsi=9ee25cfb9b234d11<\/p>\n<p>Listen to this episode on Apple Podcasts: https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/mature-me-w-rich-wilkerson-jr\/id1727468541<\/p>\n<p>Follow Rich on Instagram: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/richwilkersonjr\/<br \/>\nFollow Rich on TikTok: https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@richwilkersonjr?lang=en<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s one thing to sing about surrender.
