    Episode 57- Grace For That

    Let’s be honest — some people and situations make it really hard to be Christlike. In this episode, Thomas and Kari dive into what it looks like to apply grace to the everyday annoyances of life — from the rude coworker to the long grocery line to that never-ending family drama. With a mix of humor, Scripture, and real-life stories, they’ll explore how to respond with kindness when it’s easier to snap, and why living with grace doesn’t mean becoming a doormat. Spoiler: there’s grace for that... and for you, too.
