"Truth and love." Sometimes we think of truth and love as two separate qualities, independent of each other. But that's not how the Bible treats them. In fact, of all the "Grand Ands," "truth and love" has the deepest meaning and greatest significance.
Dr. Bruce Becker helps us see the interconnectedness of truth and love by taking us through their original meanings in Hebrew and Greek, how the English language doesn't do justice to "love," and how they were used by Jesus and the New Testament writers to reveal that each word equates with God.
Dr. Becker mentions the book by Pastor Mike Novotny, "Gay & God: Loving Everything God Made and Everything God Wrote." You can get your copy by visiting timeofgracestore.org, where you can also find other great resources in your walk of faith.
About our podcast "Bible Threads With Dr. Bruce Becker":
The Bible can be intimidating, right? There are 66 different books, more than 700,000 words, and all of it was written over a period of 1,600 years by dozens of different authors. How do we make sense of it all, and what does it mean for our lives? Amazingly, the Bible is incredibly interconnected with “threads” that run through it from beginning to end. In this podcast, Bible scholar and author Dr. Bruce Becker will uncover these threads, help you dig deeper into God’s truth, and inspire you to live your life with greater confidence and joy.
Dr. Becker brings his vast experience to share with you through this podcast. He has served as the pastor of a mission start in New York State; lead pastor of a church in Brillion, Wisconsin; and a ministry coach to churches and schools.
