Trillia Newbell joins us this week on the podcast to talk about diversity.  When we are tempted to get comfortable in relationships with people who look like us, Trillia encourages us to branch out, intentionally build relationships, and love our neighbors.  She discusses her experience being in the minority and challenges us to consider where our hearts lie on the issue.
