Brandon and Lindsy sit down with Dr. Rob Reimer, author of The Tenderness of Jesus and Soul Care, for a deeply personal conversation about encountering Jesus beyond doctrine. Rob shares his dramatic conversion, his experience through a nine-month “dark night of the soul,” and how seasons of suffering and surrender reshaped his understanding of intimacy with God. Together they explore the tenderness of Jesus, God’s sovereignty and human freedom, dying to self, authentic humility, religious performance, soul care, and why biblical knowledge must become lived transformation. Rob also shares the story behind The Tenderness of Jesus, written originally for his own children, and explains why the cross and eternity provide essential lenses for understanding God’s goodness amid suffering. The conversation closes with recommended classics on spiritual formation, a remarkable healing story from Brazil, and a prayer that we would become people unmistakably marked by having been with Jesus.\nhttps://renewalinternational.org/\nRob's book-https://amzn.to/46nj1nz\nTimestamps\n00:00:05 – Do You Love God and People More?\n 00:00:43 – Introducing Dr. Rob Reimer\n 00:03:06 – Rob’s Background and the Christian & Missionary Alliance\n 00:05:29 – A Life-Changing Encounter with Jesus\n 00:07:53 – Brandon’s Dark Night of the Soul\n 00:09:46 – What the Dark Night of the Soul Really Means\n 00:12:13 – Revival, Character and Dying to Self\n 00:14:32 – When the Presence of God Returned\n 00:16:56 – Sovereignty, Freedom and Human Choice\n 00:19:19 – God’s Goodness in a Broken World\n 00:21:40 – The Story Behind The Tenderness of Jesus\n00:23:59 – Writing to the Ones You Love About the One You Love\n00:26:19 – Soul Care, Freedom and Fullness in Christ\n00:28:39 – Emptying the Soul Before Filling It\n00:30:43 – Knowledge vs. Actual Spiritual Maturity\n00:33:05 – The Religious...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/SEi08kDnmS3ucXi-RfuKquACTpfh-Kjws-EHkJR3Eps/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9mYjhk/MGY5YjJhYTVlZGM1/ZDZhOWQ0MzNiMjIx/NWE4Yi5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
