60: The Secret to Thriving in Life: The Transformative Power of God's Love
In this episode, David Sandstrom delves into the profound power of God's love and its transformative impact on our lives, health, and relationships. He explores the various metaphors used in the Bible to describe our relationship with the divine, culminating in the most intimate depiction of God's lovers.
Sandstrom emphasizes the importance of embracing God's sacrificial, selfless love and completing the "circuit of love" by responding with worship, obedience, and service to others. He highlights how this reciprocal love brings supernatural peace, which is essential for holistic health, and contrasts it with the survival-of-the-fittest mentality of evolutionary theory.
