Is It Ever Too Late To Really Live? - VKP018 The Vaughn Kohler Podcast
-
- Christianity
No matter how old we are or where we’re at in life, we are often tempted to think it’s “too late.” “Too late” to change the direction of our lives – whether that’s personally or professionally. “Too late” to repair the damage we’ve done in a relationship. “Too late” to get right with God and end our final days well. There are a lot of biblical principles I could unpack to drive home just how irrational and patently false the “too late” mentality really is; but instead, I’d like to tell you the inspiring, hope-giving story of “Mom-Mom Em,” my maternal grandmother, Emma Lotter. She lost a daughter to suicide and a husband to Emphysema. She went into deep depression for more than a decade. When she finally came out of it, she was well into her senior years. Did she think it was “too late” for her to really start to live? Not hardly! This was a special episode for me to record and I think you’ll like it.
