Episode Summary. This episode examines how we can cooperate with the work of the Holy Spirit to produce true spiritual joy and a radical commitment all through our life to restoring broken relationships fractured by sin—ones relationship to God, himself, other humans, and creation.

For Further Prayerful Thought.

What obstacles get in the way of having a grateful heart?

What do you think it means to be assigned the role by Jesus of being an agent of reconciliation. What prevents you from doing this more successfully?
