You may know that the primary Hebrew word for love is hesed. But did you realize there are more than a hundred expressions of that one word in our English Bibles?

Join us as musician and Bible teacher Michael Card describes what this word means to him!

Life is a paradox. From the Biblical vision of God becoming a human, to the practical application of God’s truth in a broken world, inexplicable contradictions and mysterious connections leave us confused.

And then reality merges black and white perceptions, calling us once again to look at all sides of an issue until we capture its core truth. In this interview, author Jen Pollock Michel helps us to see the world from a realistic both-and perspective.
