    Date: Mar 17, 2020

    Guests: John Trent

    In a discussion based on his book The Two Sides of Love, Dr. John Trent explains the differences between the "hard side" and the "soft side" of love and how they may manifest themselves in your marriage. He offers advice for how you and your spouse can strike a healthy balance between the two sides by developing qualities that you may be lacking.
