Markus Watson joins me on the Grace Enough Podcast to discuss his journey of being falsely accused the vortex of darkness he entered and truly understanding and believing he was/is God's beloved.
Questions Markus and I Discussed:"I got involved in Campus Crusade for Christ... It was transformative for me. I learned how to share my faith. I learned how to lead a Bible study, I learned how to give a talk and found I really enjoyed doing that."
"I loved it [seminary]. As soon as I started taking those classes, I just remember thinking to myself, Oh my gosh, I can't believe I get to learn all this stuff. It felt like I was exactly where I needed to be."
"I need to let you know that someone has accused you of having a problem with pornography."
"I fell into this vortex of darkness. I was scared. I was angry. I was angry, in part because we have a process for dealing with accusations and he wasn't following the process."
"I have a few points of light in the midst of that darkness. One is my friend Kevin, who was my accountability partner. He really went to bat for me during that time."
"It's interesting how in these situations, it's like light and darkness together, right? And somehow God works through that."
"Then, I had this picture in my mind of me just sort of sitting in a prison cell having lost everything, my job, my ordination, my family, my reputation, everything. And then, I just heard God say, 'But Markus, you might lose everything, but you will never lose My love for you.' That's the one thing no one can ever take away from you. And that was an utterly transformative moment for me because I understood God's love in a way that I had never understood it before."
"It's not about earning God's love. It's just about surrendering to it."
