God Conversations in History – Carl Wesley Anderson

 God Told Arthur Guinness to Make a Better Drink and other Famous God-conversations in HistoryGod is and always has been a talking God. The Hebrew Scriptures alone record over 3500 different God-conversations. Then in the New Testament, we read of at least another 30 more. But God continues to speak beyond the stories of ancient Israel and the early church. God has spoken throughout history and the stories continue to be thrilling.On this episode, I join North American evangelist and filmmaker Reverend Carl Wesley Anderson, to talk about God conversations in history. You’ll hear about Carl’s own life-changing God-conversation in his journey through cancer as well as three others that changed the course of history.1. Carl Anderson (21st C): “Choose this cancer treatment”God spoke to Carl throughout his recovery from Stage 3b skin cancer, including a dream of his oncologist revealing which cancer treatment he should opt for.2. Evan Roberts (20th C): “Preach this sermon”God told Evan Roberts to preach to the young people of his hometown. God even gave him the four key points. When Evan did what God said, it sparked a powerful revival that led to 100,000 people coming to faith in 5 months.3. St Patrick (5th C): “Go! Your ship is ready”Patrick was an English slave in Ireland when God spoke to him in a dream, “Go, your ship is ready!” Patrick escaped during the night and walked 100 miles to the coast where he found the ship from his dream ready to return him to England. Some years later, Patrick had another dream – this time, he saw a group of people on the shores of Ireland beckoning him to return. Again, Patrick heeded God’s voice, moving back to Ireland to preach. So began the transformation of a nation.4. Arthur Guinness (18th C): “Make a better drink”God spoke to Arthur to make a better drink than gin with minimal alcohol and high levels of nutrients. And so Guinness was born. The profits from this God-conversation and Arthur’s very successful drink was used to finance a range of philanthropic projects including missions to China and beyond.Next StepsJoin the journey to hearing God’s voice.
