"Failure isn’t always a sign that we can’t cut it. Sometimes we’re trying to operate at a level that we’re not mature enough to handle."
Have you ever felt like you’ve messed up so badly that there’s no way back? In this episode of Cedar Point Recovery - Weekly Messages, Pastor Aaron Shaw dives into the powerful story of John Mark’s desertion and redemption. It’s a tale that many of us can relate to, especially when we feel like our failures define us. Pastor Aaron opens up about his own journey, from running away from his calling to finding his place in ministry.
He shares candidly about the struggles he faced, including rejection from a church and how it led him back into addiction. But his story doesn’t end there. With a mix of humour and heartfelt reflection, Aaron highlights how failure isn’t the end but often a stepping stone to greater things. He draws parallels between his experiences and John Mark’s, showing how immaturity and missteps don’t have to be the final chapter.

If you’ve ever felt like giving up, this episode offers a message of hope and redemption, reminding you that it’s never too late to get back on track.
