This weeks opening question is a great one! How can we be in relationships, without making idols of them or finding our worth in them?

The book I referenced is "Life Together" by Dietrich Bonhoeffer.

In this weeks episode we start with a thought on contemporary translations of the Bible, like the new book, “The Gospel According to Gen Z.” Then we discuss Daniel chapter 8. Admittedly, I felt like I stumbled my way through this one, but I hope something is helpful.
