Speaker: Josh Herring We all know how to select the juiciest, tastiest, and most delicious fruits in the produce aisle. How come we’re not as precise when selecting someone to disciple?

Speaker: Peter Krol - Often, we think of friendship as something almost random or spontaneous: either you “click” with someone or you don’t.

So show me your friends, and I’ll show your odds at ever finding wisdom. Want a c…
