Space to Pursue Wholeness
We long for more healing but often don't know how to pursue it in a focused, intentional manner. In this week's podcast, John is joined by Sam Eldredge, Stacia Littlefield, and Stacey Burton to discuss wholeheartedness and well-being. As Sam says, "Our wounds come through relationships, so our healing will also come through relationships."
