In this episode, Abby sits down with guest Kim Zember—speaker, missionary, and founder of Unforgotten Faces—to talk about deeper human longings: intimacy, connection, identity, and the ways our early experiences shape how we love. Kim shares how the search for belonging, misunderstood intimacy, and emotional wounds can influence our relationships, and how Jesus brought restoration, clarity, and freedom to her life.
Together, Abby and Kim explore why so many young people today feel disconnected, why authentic affection has become so misunderstood, and how culture often sexualizes even healthy forms of love. They discuss the importance of community, healing from past hurts, and rediscovering the difference between closeness and sexualization in a world that confuses the two.
It’s an honest, compassionate conversation about what it means to be created for relationship—with God and with one another—and how rediscovering healthy intimacy can transform the heart.
