Former Australian Prime Minister Talks About God's Work In Politics

Most politicians tend to write books about what they've done while in office. But Scott Morrison, a former Prime Minister of Australia, wanted to write about what God has done and continues to do for him. Morrison is candid about how God brought him through some of the most harrowing days of his leadership of Australia, a country not known for its religious fervor. And that's what makes Morrison's faith all the more interesting. One would expect such devout beliefs in America, a country that Morrison greatly admires. But the land down under is a bit of a head scratcher. Founded as a penal colony for the United Kingdom, Australia had a rough and tumble beginning. On this episode of Lighthouse Faith podcast, Morrison talks about his book "Plans For Your Good: A Prime Minister’s Testimony Of God’s Faithfulness." It's based on the Old Testament prophet Jeremiah's prescient words to the children of Israel, and to us, "'For I know the plans I have for you,' says the Lord. 'They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.'” In this political season, such comforts are words to cling to. Learn more about your ad choices.
