Everyone knows 1 Corinthians 13 as "the love chapter"—it shows up at weddings all the time. But Paul wasn't writing marriage advice. He was addressing a church drunk on spiritual gifts while missing the entire point of Christianity.

In this episode, we break down why Paul calls love the "more excellent way" and why you can have all the spiritual gifts in the world but still be making meaningless noise. We examine what biblical love actually looks like (spoiler: it's not feelings), why Moses missed the Promised Land over this issue, and how to test if your relationships reflect genuine love or just emotional manipulation.

We also tackle the uncomfortable truth that every spiritual gift will eventually become obsolete—except love.

Covered in this episode:

• Why speaking in tongues without love is just noise
• The 15 characteristics of real love (and why they're convicting)
• What "love believes all things" actually means
• Why your sacrifices might be completely worthless
• The difference between gifts being "perfect" vs "permanent"
• A practical test for measuring your spiritual maturity

Time to move past the Hallmark card version and see what Paul really meant.
