About this listen

 You're offended, I'm offended, we're all offended and trying to get the world to operate in a way in which we don't get offended. But the reality is, life and people just don't work that way. What does it mean to live 'unoffendable'? Author and Bible teacher Alexandra is today's guest on the AllMomDoes podcast with Julie Lyles Carr and she reveals how to build resilience, grace, and realistic boundaries, not just for ourselves, but to also show our kids how to walk in emotional health in a complicated world.
