How Love Responds to What’s Broken (#1055)
Wayne and Kyle explore how to live out of love, especially when in conflicted situations. Drawing from Wayne and Tobie’s recent How Does Love Make Right? seminar, they walk through seven ways love can respond to hurt and injustice: presence, truth, impact, responsibility, protection, restoration, and freedom. The goal is not to control people or force an outcome, but to learn how to act from the fullness of God’s love rather than fear, scarcity, or self-protection. Along the way, they reflect on boundaries, honest apologies, safe relationships, arrogance, and the challenge of telling the truth without weaponizing it. Love does not ignore what is broken, nor does it pretend every situation can be fixed on demand. It helps us see clearly, own what is ours, protect what matters, and make room for restoration wherever it is possible.

Hi Wayne, my husband and I live in Australia and would love to be a part of the upcoming seminar you and Tobie are planning, could you please tell us how we can put our names on the list.
People can write me at waynej@lifestream.org to be added to the list. I already added you and your husband, Roz, so no need for you to do it. We are looking to start this conversation in early January and do it over six weeks. We are still ironing out all the details. We will let you know when we do.
Thanks so much Wayne, we appreciate you so much.
