About Paul Granger:
When asked what he does, Paul likes to say "ambassador of Christ", because he's learned that this job supersedes any other he may hold.
One of the ways God has invited him to live out the call to "love God and love others" is through the "shepherding gift": providing pastoral support, cultivating authentic and accessible space for conversation and community, and advocating for those who may go unseen.
Functionally, he has spent the last two decades serving with various ministries and now serves full-time alongside YWAM and other entities in loving his neighbors in authentic ways. He's a content creator, whether it is his podcast "Where Did You See God", writings, or videos. He loves spending time with his wife and kids, and they see their home -- which God gave them in a crazy way -- as an important piece of how they love their neighbors as a lifestyle.
Weekly Scripture:
Proverbs 15:1 A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.
Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; (6) in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.
Matthew 5:9 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.
Luke 9:23 Then he said to them all: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me.
Ephesians 3:20 Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us,
