Retired US Naval Officer, Cliff Johnson, reminds us where our identity ought to be grounded and tells us stories of how he’s been able to stay firmly rooted in his; he explains how he reveals God to those he meets in his everyday life, by loving them, regardless of their opinion; and helps us to recognize how truly listening to others - whether we agree with them or not - leads to understanding that builds relationships. From patriotism to racism, Cliff encourages us to relate to our neighbours with love and compassion; and he tells us how, now he’s a stay-at-home dad, he’s finding Jesus in his new ordinary and learning fresh ways to share his faith with others.
