Ep111- Listen: How a Pastor got Schooled by Holy Spirit w/Author Allen Chapin

Few things change our lives in a profound, pivoting way, but hearing God's voice is one of those things.  Author Allen Chapin shares in this episode about a challenge God gave him that totally wrecked him in the best way possible.  In fact, he decided to write a book about it!  In his book "Listen", Allen walks the reader through his experience as he obeyed the Lord in this challenge of getting up and hearing HIS voice first, before ANYTHING, everyday, for 365 days.  His book makes room for the reader to take their own "Listening" journey too!  In this episode, he shares a very personal glimpse into how this process changed his life, and how the simple practice can change yours as well.  Let's dive in... and don't forget to go grab your own copy of his book on Amazon to get your New Year started off in a life-transformational way!  In fact, grab an extra copy for a friend for Christmas or their birthday (you know, those people who are always hard to buy for), and play a small part in them experiencing a totally transformed year too.   ------------------------------------------------- ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Allen Chapin has served in full-time ministry for more than 25 years as youth pastor, university staff, denominational leader, evangelist, author, blogger, and lead pastor, but he would rather be known for who he was designed to be: a guy who simply loves and encourages people, offering them grace and hope as he helps them get on the path God has for them.
