Have you ever been confronted by a friend and had feelings of offense well up inside you?

Then listen to my conversation with Ruth Chou Simons, as we talk through a situation in which she confronted me for a way I'd wronged her, and how God took what could have been a terrible situation, and made it into something life-giving and beautiful.

Ruth is the founder of gracelaced.com and a best-selling, award-winning author of multiple books, including her newest book and Bible study When Strivings Cease. You can find her on instagram at @ruthchousimons.
