Kevin DeYoung reminds us, we all need each other in the body of Christ.

No one can do everything alone.

If you think I need to be a hand and a foot and an eye and a nose, you're, that's actually not humble.

This is the Revive Our Hearts podcast for Monday, November 14th, 2016.

I'm delighted to have with us here on Revive Our Hearts today, the author of a book that when it came out, I knew I needed this book, and I'm thinking you probably do too.
