Jesus Was Just a Curse Word: The Story of Morgan Proudfoot

Morgan Proudfoot was brought up with an unstable childhood. From inner city Seattle to the cornfields of Pennsylvania, his only understanding of “Jesus” was as a word of profanity. As a teenager, his elderly neighbors undeterred by the generational gap, invited him to know Jesus in a new way: as God himself. When life did not become easier, he clung to the belief that God was loving, and that a loving God would not abandon him in suffering. Morgan is now a pastor of Grace Harbor Church, a recently planted church in New Bedford, Massachusetts, In this episode, Morgan chats with the Stoop crew and reflects on how God brought him through insurmountable challenges and has been at work throughout his entire life. Morgan now hopes to display the gospel to an underserved city and share this hope of Christ with the lost and broken.
