That longing you have to be fully known? God put it there. It’s meant to draw you into intimacy with Him.  Yet, we try to fill it with people (or things) who can never know us completely. In this episode, Juli talks with Carolyn Weber, author of "Sex and the City of God," about what life looks like when we choose to love God first.
