DescriptionToday's question: "What if I just don't like my neighbour—can I still love them if it's only out of obedience, not emotion?"
In this lighthearted Summer Speedos conversation, your messy adviser, Johan, unpacks the awkward realities of caring for people who might be more challenging than charming. Using a mix of relatable stories, biblical reflection, and a dash of humour, Johan explores what happens when love feels more like duty than delight. Whether you've ever dodged a call, felt your patience stretched by a care initiative, or questioned your motives for helping, there's wisdom and encouragement here for anyone navigating the not-so-smooth side of serving others. Perfect for those summer moments when you need a quick dose of real talk and hope to keep you loving well—even when it's messy.
