Richard Beck joins the tent once again to finish out Sean's Translation and Interpretation series to discuss how people wrestle through meaning as groups. What are the hills of meaning we are willing to die on and what areas of tension are we willing to live with if it means staying in community with those we love? Rather than coming to definitive conclusions on any one subject, Richard and Sean offer us a glimpse of how to become intentional listeners to those around us even while learn how to seek resolutions to our own set of questions.You discover more of Richard Beck's thoughts and works at his website.Has anything we make been interesting, useful or fruitful for you?
