Dead-End Love

The Love Better podcast is designed to help you love the right things in the right ways. Love is central to every relationship (good or bad!), and it is integral to knowing God. Each episode explores practical ways to grow your heart and renew your relationships as Christ intends. We let God define love and use the Bible as our foundation. Let's learn to love like Christ and love for Christ.

Remember, you are loved, so go... love better!

One of my goals with this podcast is to introduce an audience I love to people I love.  I’d like you to meet Steve Wilkes.  Steve Wilkes is a husband, father, Christian, and drug and alcohol counselor.  Steve and I talked about addiction in its many forms through a biblical lens. For those listening with children’s ears nearby, we never talk about anything in a graphic way, but the words ‘pornography’ and ‘suicide’ do show up a couple of times. We talk about chemical dependency, behavioral addictions, and Steve’s own road to restoration with the Lord.  It turns out that recovery from addiction is more than just a body issue – it’s a soul issue, too.  I believe this issue is worthy of our time and attention because, as always, the Bible has answers.  Whether you are battling addiction yourself, struggling with the impact of a loved one’s addiction, or simply want to learn how to be better prepared to love your neighbor as yourself –Steve provides practical tools to combat the idol of addiction.

If you would like further information about recovery from drug addiction or substance abuse recovery, feel free to contact me at scott@biblegrad.com, and I will happily connect you with Steve. "Remember, you are loved, so go, love better!"

A Quick Update (be back next week!)

The Yalu river, risk versus reward, and the life of a defector.

Today, we look at the most important journey you'll ever make.  The journey of the soul to God.

This is the seventh in a ten-part series on learning to love the Lord (and our neighbor) with all our soul.  The soul is that part of you that is eternal.  After death, after life, all you will be left with is your soul to carry on into eternity.  If you don’t learn to love with all your soul, you won’t have any love left when life is over. "Remember, you are loved, so go, love better!"

Love's Crossing

A Prussian-Russian Alliance, a stone that's not actually made of stone, and a reminder that the whole is greater than the sum of it's parts.

Today, we look at God's soul structure - the kingdom of God.

This is the sixth in a ten-part series on learning to love the Lord (and our neighbor) with all our soul.  The soul is that part of you that is eternal.  After death, after life, all you will be left with is your soul to carry on into eternity.  If you don’t learn to love with all your soul, you won’t have any love left when life is over. "Remember, you are loved, so go, love better!"

Amber Love

A late 16th century play, the un-tameable heart of a woman named Kate, and the tiniest mammal on the planet earth.

Today, we look at the needs of the soul and God's answer to how to love Him with all our souls.

This is the fifth in a ten-part series on learning to love the Lord (and our neighbor) with all our soul.  The soul is that part of you that is eternal.  After death, after life, all you will be left with is your soul to carry on into eternity.  If you don’t learn to love with all your soul, you won’t have any love left when life is over.
