Tony & Kristy Episode 20

🎙️ Episode 20: Who Is My Neighbor? – It’s Who You’re Hoping It’s Not

What if the person God is asking you to love... is the one you’re secretly hoping He’ll overlook?

This episode started with a meme—and turned into a conviction. Kristy and Tony talk honestly about the people we draw lines around: the ones who mock us, overlook our kids, cut us off in traffic, or vote in ways we can’t stomach. It’s raw, reflective, and rooted in lived moments of disability, parenting, faith, and frustration.

Jesus didn’t give us a loophole. He gave us a parable—and told us to love the one left in the road. Whether it’s your loud neighbor, your political opposite, or the one who wounded you emotionally... they’re not off the list. They’re the list.

If you're tired of performative kindness or struggling to love people who make life harder—this one’s for you.

🔶 What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

• The meme that exposed something unflattering—and true
 • How disability and advocacy test our compassion
 • Why praying for someone’s success changes us too
 • The challenge of raising kids who love across lines
 • Why grace is always the right answer—even when it’s costly
