Summary
Who is your enemy? Who is your friend? To consider those questions we spend time with Jeremy Courtney, founder and president of Preemptive Love Coalition. Preemptive Love is a "coalition stretching across Iraq, Syria, the United States, and beyond, working together to unmake violence and create the more beautiful world our hearts know is possible."
Lean in as Jeremy and Jessica work to re-frame the idea of good and evil, as well as help us understand some of the current conflicts around the globe—and how we can be a part of bringing peace.
