Today, we're joined by Marie Cohen and Kate Rentz once again. This week, Marie and Kate talk this week about speaking the truth in love. We know having hard conversations is not always fun or easy… but it’s actually in the Bible that we are to speak the truth in love. But what is truth and what is love, actually? What does that look like and what should I be doing to prepare?

Today, Brandon tackles the topic of living in a work based culture but living for God. In our culture today, ‘love’ often is measured by success in the work we do. However, God’s love, the truest love, is not. We don’t have to work for God’s love. He loves us because we are created by God. So listen as Brandon unpacks what that actually means for us and our lives!
