Thanks to another fantastic question from a loyal listener, we talk in this episode about forgiveness, especially when someone hasn't apologized or recognized hurting you, as well as reconciliation. We discuss the differences between the two and what the Bible says and how we interpret those passages on the topic. Enjoy!

We had a blast interviewing our good friends from TRC, Mark and Lauren Estes, to talk all about their experience with fostering and adopting. We dive into their work as house parents working with young people in transition. We talk about how the Lord and others showed up to help them navigate hard times. It's a great discussion we think you'll enjoy!

This episode comes as a response to a great question from one of our phenomenal students at TRC who asked why kids/teenagers need to grow up and mature instead of just being kids. This came up after a part of a recent sermon by Mitch who brought this up. We decided to tackle this fantastic question focusing on the adolescence range and talk all about development, maturity, growth, discernment, having fun, and many other great things. Thanks so much for an awesome question!
