80. The Fruit of the Spirit: Love | What Biblical Love Really Is

Send us your thoughts through Fan Mail What does it really mean to love? In this episode, we explore agapē—the selfless, sacrificial love described in Galatians 5:22. Unlike the world’s definition of love as a feeling, this kind of love is produced by the Holy Spirit as we remain in Christ. You’ll learn the difference between Spirit-produced love and effort-produced love, and how to walk in love practically using a simple framework: Pause, Ponder, Pray, and Participate. If loving others feels hard or exhausting, this episode will help you shift from striving in your own strength to abiding in Christ—where true love begins.
