How to Handle Politics and Family | Therapy & Theology #lysaterkeurst

As a Christian, how can we approach challenging situations and conversations in a God-honoring way? To handle politics and family dynamics together is difficult! How do we balance grace and truth when someone in our community disagrees with us or believes something different than us?

Through podcast reviews, direct messages on social media and more, Lysa TerKeurst; Licensed Professional Counselor Jim Cress; and Proverbs 31 Ministries' Director of Theological Research, Dr. Joel Muddamalle, collected your most asked questions.
