My guest this week is Matt Brown, the founding and senior pastor at Sandals church in Riverside, California. From a humble eight-person church plant in 1997, Sandals Church has now expanded to 14 physical campuses across California, with a digital footprint touching 110,000 people weekly. In our conversation, Pastor Matt shares insights from his latest book, Every Day a Miracle. He challenges us to explore the everyday opportunities for miracles and invites us to see Jesus not just as a savior but as a healer. I can’t wait for you to join us for this powerful discussion filled with laughter, tears, and deep reflections on faith and prayer. 2:17 – Matt 101  The early years of church planting Matt’s hobbies and interests outside of pastoring A vision to be real as a church     13:16 – The Power of Confession and Repentance  Modeling confession for the next generation A story of miraculous healing  20:31 – Faith-Driven Miracles  The inspiration behind Matt’s book, Every Day A Miracle God answers all prayers with yes, no, or wait Miracles in moments of desperation  28:12 – Participation in Miracles  Getting real with God Repetition and meaning in prayer Trusting and worshiping amid uncertainty  40:27 – Journeying with Jesus  Matt’s prayer for people reading his book Asking “how” instead of “why” during disappointment The complexity of healing  52:21 – Takeaways  Connecting with Matt Pre-ordering Every Day A Miracle  FEATURED QUOTES “If you want to heal, you’ve got to get real…That's just the only way it works.” “I'm not one of these super uber charismatic people that's always believed in miracles… I'm a Baptist, who has been compelled by repeated evidence that they happen, that miracles are real, and they happen every day.” “I cannot guarantee the miracle you want, but I do guarantee the miracle you need.” “There's a very little chance of that prayer being answered if your audience is the people around you and not the God in heaven.” Learn more about Matt: Sandals Church https://sandalschurch.com/ Pre-order Everyday a Miracle https://everydayamiraclebook.com/ Matt on social media https://www.instagram.com/matthewstephenbrown/ https://twitter.com/pastormattbrown https://www.facebook.com/pastormattbrown/
