This episode will look at what that greatest command is and how we can enhance the most important relationship in our lives.

True or false: Whenever a person fails, it means that person was being disobedient to God or not supposed to do the thing they failed at. Your perspective on failure will be challenged after this episode, and your view on setbacks may look different after listening. Sometimes "failure" or setback may be the blessing that you really need.

Has God ever communicated with you directly? Have you heard him speak to you? There are some things you can do to turn up the volume and some ways you can expect God to use to communicate with you. It can be disheartening when you feel the volume is on mute and discouraging when others share how they hear God. Hearing God is a journey for each of us, but where the volume is set now could change.
