Luke and I interview Brad and Kellie Farley, founders of www.ModernTestament.org and a couple in the midst of fighting to save their marriage from alcoholism and infidelity. They drew strength by hearing other people's nightmares, and how they made it out alive. Inspired by their stories of brokenness, hurt, and recovery, they began to fashion a website for people to do the same thing on a new kind of website. The Modern Testament is how you describe the Holy Spirit working in the midst of your brokenness. I'll let Brad tell it from his post on Medium:

\n “For me, 2016 was getting fired for the first time, coming to the realization that I was a piece of shit person whose arrogance and selfishness put those around me in bad spots, dealing with a failing marriage, coming clean about 7 years of secrets and lies, and my wife\u2019s first-hidden then public alcohol abuse.

Religion was my turning point. Always a casual Christian, I dove deep and found the inspiration to make real, substantial change. That\u2019s not everyone\u2019s driver though, but a simple fact remains: when we are vulnerable and honest with each other, pretensions fall and real connections can be made.

I have shared my testimony with many people and it has fostered much deeper relationships than I ever had before. So that\u2019s what we want to do; connect people together through humility and vulnerability. We\u2019re creating our own platform for it at www.moderntestament.org, but Medium is also a great vehicle too.

So, we want to publish stories of people being REAL\u200a\u2014\u200anot just social-media-perfection-real, but really real with their struggles, pains, hopes, and saving graces. Let\u2019s unite for good on the Internet, finally. Let\u2019s connect those who need help to those who can.”
