In this episode, we talk about the tension between speaking the truth boldly while still being loving, and how Jesus modeled both perfectly. He was honest, unafraid to offend when necessary, yet everything He said was rooted in love. Pastor Aaron Brockett is joined by Pastors Landon and Chad as they discuss what it looks like to stand firm in what’s true, speak clearly when it’s uncomfortable, and love people enough to call them higher.

If you’ve ever wondered how to stay kind without compromising your beliefs, this conversation will give you the courage to be both clear and compassionate.
