Episode Details

It’s one of the most old-fashioned practices we can cultivate in our modern culture. And no, it’s not baking sourdough, or growing vegetables, or milking a cow… I’m talking about building community.

So why is it so hard? And how can we navigate relationships in our ultra-polarized world?

Dr. Gary Chapman, best-selling author of The 5 Love Languages, is joining us today to talk about building & mending community in a world that seems determined to keep us isolated.
