The essence of love shapes the human experience in profound ways. This episode invites you to pause and reflect on how a life rooted in love transforms our daily actions and interactions.

Host Jay Kim reflects on a profound conversation from season one with Rich Villodas. Villodas is renowned for his insights on the spiritual journey towards Christlikeness. Kim delves into how sin obstructs access to God's love and how modern churches often misinterpret the essence of righteous living. Instead of focusing on what not to do, this episode invites listeners to embrace a life characterized by self-giving, sacrificial love. 

Tune in and be inspired to pursue a life centered on genuine love.
