Core Motivation: When Life Happens, Where Do We Go and What Do We Do?

In this episode we ask the question “when life happens where do we go and what do we do?” As we journey deeper with God we discover that we all have longings that have gone unfulfilled. The truth is that our ability to love others is directly tied to having our own needs met and sometimes the places we find ourselves are a means of escape or relief from the life that we’re living. What do we do when we don’t know what to do? Where do we go?
