In this conversation between Kori & Lee, you’ll learn some practical tips to create an action plan on how to speak the truth in love with the children in your life. They share relatable experiences that will lovingly address conflict while keeping in step with God’s Word. When the world seeks to avoid conflict, we want to take the higher ground and confidently teach our children to boldly walk towards resolution.
