119 - Walter Hill: Finding Your Way Back to Amazed

Morning Conversation: MyBridge Radio

When Walter Hill first encountered Jesus as a teenager, it changed everything. He came from a broken home –– a father who wanted nothing to do with faith, a mother who passed away when he was just 15, and a season of deep anger and confusion. But thanks to the persistence of a friend, Walter found himself at a youth event where the Gospel reached past his hurt and brought him home to Jesus. That initial, transformative encounter sparked a lifelong journey of faith that he now hopes to pass on to others. In this episode, Walter shares his powerful story, including the mentors who shaped him, the spiritual lessons he’s learned along the way, and the faith that still fuels his ministry today.

Walter also shares about the heart behind his book, Amazed Again: Reclaiming Christ’s Fading Fire. It began as a message to his son, who had recently expressed interest in ministry, but quickly grew into a call to all believers. Walter reflects on the challenges of keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus, the reality of spiritual warfare, and the dangers of allowing our relationship with church to replace our relationship with Christ. He also speaks to the everyday distractions that can slowly draw our hearts away from the joy we once knew in Jesus –– and how we can rediscover it. With insights from John 15 and his own journey of abiding in Christ, Walter offers a refreshing reminder to stay close to the true source of our strength and hope.
