Author Darren Brown: God uses flawed people for His plans, too
Darren Brown didn’t initially intend on writing professionally. However, after it was suggested from family and close friends that he turn his adult Sunday school lessons into a book, he decided to take a leap faith on publishing.
This resulted in his first book, Flawed Like Me which focuses on 12 Biblical characters and how God used them in spite of their flaws for His greater plan. During an interview with Aknowingspirit, Brown talked about how God does this with all of us—and the reason behind this.
“By using flawed people, we can’t take the credit for ourselves,” Brown said. “We couldn’t have done it on our own.”
Brown went on to discuss how God’s second chances were evident in his own life, and how his life transformed with God’s help.
Listen to the entire talk with Darren Brown below. This discussion will also air on the Virtuous Entertainment TV Network!

Ideas for How Church Communities Can Care for Their Senior Members
Churches provide their members with more than just a place to worship. It’s also a source of community, a promise that there will be people there for you when you need it. If you have a substantial senior population in your church community, there’s a lot you can do to make sure they’re thriving. Aknowingspirit has created this guide to help inspire you to do what’s best for the seniors in your church family:
Creating Social Opportunities
Help the seniors in your church get the social time they need to thrive:
Many seniors get very little social interaction, which can lead to serious health issues.
Hosting senior-focused events is a great way to help facilitate friendships among your senior population.
Mixed-age events help build intergenerational friendships, which offer many benefits for people across ages.
Visiting at Home
Seniors can benefit from a friend checking in.
Encourage your community to visit one another – particularly older members – throughout the week.
Learn these home safety red flags, and volunteer to help seniors create a safer home environment.
You can also facilitate a church exercise group where members of all ages exercise together and hold one another accountable.
These are just a few ways your church can be there for its senior members. If you’re looking for more ideas, the best thing to do is connect with the older members of your church community and ask them their needs directly. This way you can ensure your church is meeting the needs of its most vulnerable members.
