Brent talks with Russell Joyce about his new IVP America book called ‘His Face Like Mine: Finding God’s Love in Our Wounds’.
‘Russell was born with a rare craniofacial disorder called Goldenhar syndrome, where the left side of his face was not formed. Years of patchwork surgeries made him more outwardly presentable, but not without deep pain and physical and emotional scars. But a life changing encounter broke through to him with a power he never thought possible, in the very place he never thought to look – his broken face’.
Russell is the director of Foursquare Multiply, the church planting movement of the Foursquare denomination in the States. He’s also lead pastor of Faith Center, a historic church in the Foursquare Movement. In 2017 he planted a church in Brookly, New York with the Hope Church NYC family of churches before transitioning in 2021. He co-hosts the ‘Same Jesus Podcast’.
