Tim was a recent guest on the Placed For A Purpose podcast to talk about how to disagree well with our neighbors. Through storytelling from his own life and current events, Tim uses practical and Biblical wisdom to help us learn how to dialogue with our neighbors. They talk about having convictions like steak, being chimps vs. rhinos, categorizing and characterizing people, inviting feedback, and the risks of being civil. You can listen to the podcast on Apple Podcasts.
