Matt: Deconversion of a Missionary

Published: Aug. 15, 2022, midnight

b'This week\\u2019s guest is Matthew. Matthew grew up in the Pentacostal tradition and went from being a youth leader in high school to a full-time international missionary as an adult. He had\\xa0all\\xa0the right answers to all the important questions. The missionary life, however, didn\\u2019t turn out as he\\u2019d expected. He and his team did everything in their power to tell people about Jesus but nothing supernatural was happening. Year after year, \\u201cthe hiddenness of God\\u201d became too much for Matthew. It hasn\\u2019t been easy for Matthew to get where he is now\\u2014living a freer life, not having to have all the answers, not having to wait for the supernatural to happen. He loves people closest to him, enjoys his friends and acquaintances without judgment, and those small things are what slowly change the world.
