Listen Later

In this episode, we explore a powerful story from the Book of Numbers, where Miriam and Aaron challenge Moses' leadership, particularly criticizing him for his marriage to a Cushite woman.

We examine how to apply these principles in leadership, personal relationships, and community dynamics today.
