Desire vs. Design: The Truth About Identity and the Soul
Loading
/

Eric Hernandez joins Brady Cone on Calibrate Conversations to unpack what it means to be a soul, how desire and design reveal our true identity, and why culture’s view of gender and sexuality misses the mark. Discover how understanding the soul transforms how we think about gender, truth, and evangelism—and how believers can respond with both conviction and compassion.
