Episode Summary

Most Christians are living on starvation rations of relationship. This is not God’s design. God’s people—the Church—are supposed to be the culture’s example of rich, committed, deep relationships. If you don’t have them, here’s how you can.

Outside of God’s Word, the greatest protection He gave us is God’s people. Sadly, many Christian couples do life without other believers and the wise counsel and correction that comes with them. In this episode, Dale and Veronica discuss what it takes to have biblical community wrapped around your family.
