In this episode we look at what it means to maintain and grow in relationships amidst a culture of division... and we are not talking about mamby pamby niceness that lets go of the strong convictions that we hold. True relationship is not about sacrificing what we believe to be true, but about upholding the dignity of our brothers and sisters and loving them so that we can continue to dig for the truth together.
