024 – More Than You Can Handle With Nate Pyle

Nate Pyle - Thriving Leaders Podcast

Welcome to episode 24 of the Thriving Leaders Podcast, brought to you by Jasondyk.com. Today we are sitting down with Pastor, author, and writer Nate Pyle. I had the chance to meet Nate about a year ago at Calvin College’s Festival of Faith and Writing, so it was great to reconnect again!

Nate has a new book coming out entitled: More Than You Can Handle: When Life’s Overwhelming Pain Meets God’s Overcoming Grace. You can pick it up on Amazon right here. Here’s a little bit of what we chatted about:

  • Will God give you more than you can handle?

  • Does good always come out of tragedy?

  • How do we sit with people in the middle of their suffering?

  • Why we feel uncomfortable and what we can do about it

  • James Finely’s quote: God protects us from nothing but sustains us through everything

  • The importance of empathy in suffering

  • Embracing vulnerability from the pulpit

  • Wrestling with faith as certainty

Here are some of the things/people mentioned in this book:
