    What is a wall? There are walls that we build in relationships between us and people we love, and there are also walls that we build between us and the people we disagree with.  And sometimes, we imprison ourselves within our own walls of shame, guilt, fear, and depression. There are even walls that we assume people are using to keep God out; but in reality, they are just waiting on you to invite them into the family of God. Ryan and Briana talk about how to see those walls through the eyes of Jesus and what Jesus has done for you. And they share a powerful testimony about refusing to let walls be built between people, and instead, leaning in to see people how God sees them.  Join them for this couch conversation and invite someone into the conversation with you, too!
