The first eight episodes walked an arc — the thesis, the math, the testimony, the strategic doctrine, the discovery, the endowment, the coincidence. Today the arc resolves.
Every word on the doctrinal list — form, power, unfoldment, endowment, alchemy, conversion, coincidence — points at one substance. There is one thing at the bottom of all of them, one name: love.
Charity never faileth (1 Corinthians 13:8). God is love (1 John 4:8). Not God has love — God is love. Love is His substance. Charity is the pure love of Christ, and it is bestowed, not manufactured (Moroni 7:47–48). The personal-development tradition could teach you to think, to imagine, to want — but none of it could fill you with charity. That is the Father's gift.
In this episode: why love is the infinite source; the difference between love that calls you upward and lust dressed in love's clothing; what thirty years taught me about what love actually is; and the answer to the question this podcast began with — for what end were you born?
The spark is to live the teachings of Christ. The fire is to be perfected in Him. Come — do greater works than these. — Kent
