266: A Pickleball Confession: Never do this if you want to stay married! On Disordered Love: A Personal Journey toward Loving God First

Today I open up about my struggle with prioritizing winning over my love for God, using St. Augustine's concept of disordered love to illustrate how this behavior can lead to sinful idolatry. I delve into the role of anger as a revealing indicator of disordered love, referencing various biblical verses and neuroscientific insights. I share a personal story from a pickleball league where my competitive nature led to destructive behavior and strained my relationship with my spouse. I discuss the necessity of realigning one's priorities and actions to reflect a love for God above all else, and conclude with an invitation for you to reflect on your own priorities and challenges, reminding you of the transformative power of renewing your mind. Grab a bit of hope for positive change and growth believing you have the potential for lasting transformation in every area of your life!
