We’re back with another question from a listener’s child: why does God describe Himself as a jealous God? Isn’t jealousy bad? In this quick Q&A, Dot and Cara walk through the difference between holy intent and selfish motivation together and Dot shares encouragement that we don’t have to know all the answers, just the One who does. Pour yourself a warm drink and join us for this conversation!
