We are joined by two authors who have written a book called Just Love, Wayne Jacobsen of California and Tobie Vander Westhuizen of South Africa.

After we recorded the conversation, Wayne told me, “I love that you can engage in conversation without having to agree on every point.” Which is true. I don’t agree with every point. But it is good to hear the stories of these men, and to appreciate their hearts. Our goals are the same: to love God and others.

I found the book to be both a polemic and plea. In speaking with the authors, it became clear that they aren’t concerned that readers accept their polemic as long as they respond to their plea. If you are able to listen to the whole interview, I think you will see what I mean.
