On this episode, we answer the age-old question: what is love? We talk with Daniel Bennett, our director of Middle School Ministries, about 1 Corinthians 13, the famous love chapter. Daniel wrote prominently on this passage in his grad school thesis, so we dive deep and ask some hard questions around what it means to love.

1 Corinthians 13:4-7: "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres."
