In this episode, Mark Batterson joins me to talk about Not My Circus and how to live with courage, conviction, and compassion in a world of chaos. We explore discernment as anointed intuition, why grace and truth need each other, and what Jesus with the woman caught in adultery teaches us about which comes first. Mark opens up about people-pleasing, overfunctioning, and the practice of being unoffendable. We discuss unity in a divided church, holding convictions with humility, and the call to create culture rather than simply consume or condemn it. We also talk about wayfinding and how discernment grows over time.
