Embracing Brokenness

By: Alan Nelson

Narrated by: Alan E. Nelson

Embracing Brokenness is a journey to healing and wholeness by teaching how God can use our disappointments to grow us if we're willing to embrace them.

Alan E. Nelson, EdD, studied the process of brokenness through scriptures' historical and contemporary leaders, along with their own faith journey. While few talk about times of brokenness openly, nearly everyone experiences them deeply. Instead of resisting the pain and avoiding the things that cause them, the counterintuitive solution is that God often uses brokenness to grow our souls. Embracing our brokenness improves healing and catalyzes maturity, resulting in new growth that will only happen through this embrace.

Leaning into pain can result in peace. People who resist brokenness become the walking wounded, and they are all around us, becoming bitter versus better and extending their pain to others.

This book offers a truly healing listen for those who are experiencing broken dreams, unhealthy relations, lost finances, and who feel despondent in general. Hope sprouts new as you hear these contemporary words of wisdom that have aided people throughout time.

Great content but poor recording because of stopping and starting while being read.

I own this book in paper and love it but the reading was technically poor. Content is exceptional.

Brokenness is a blessing not a burden

This was my first exposure to the teaching of brokenness. It was eye opening and the light of God’s goodness and grace in my brokenness showed me that I am empowered by being broken.

bad sound

the quality of sound was awful. broke up and background banging. I read the paper copy and it's a great book but not the audible version
