Advent reminds us that Jesus is God’s love on full display, the ultimate expression of the Father’s heart toward humanity. In this episode, we unpack the inseparable connection between Jesus and love, exploring the profound meaning of agape—the unconditional, sacrificial love that reflects the very nature of God.

Join us as we:

- Reflect on 1 John 4:8 and the power of God’s agape love.

- Celebrate how Jesus, the Light of the world, calls us from darkness into marvelous light.

- Explore what it means to live with eternity in mind, cultivating hope and purpose in the waiting.

- Share stories of love in action, reminding us that we are called to receive and give this transformative love.

Through stories, Scripture, and practical insights, we celebrate the greatest gift of all: God Himself, wrapped in flesh. Let’s learn how to shine His light and share His love with those who need it most this Advent season.

Tune in and embrace the light of love this Advent! 🎧

Over time I gravitated to the original teachings of the Buddha, embodied in the Theravadan tradition, for their down-to-earth clarity, and important sources for me have included the teachers of Spirit Rock Meditation Center and the Pali Canon itself. More recently, I've explored grounding the dharma in modern evolutionary neuropsychology - "neurodharma" - recognizing how mind arises dependently upon the body, especially the nervous system as it tries to meet ancient needs for raw survival. I am especially interested in using these approaches to heighten the learning - the cultivation (bhavana) - from beneficial experiences (otherwise often wasted on the brain) to reduce the underlying sense of deficit and disturbance that causes the craving that causes suffering and harm. Overall, I feel amazingly blessed to have the opportu True North Podcast with Chris Quiring Chris Quiring Finding truth in a culture of confusion.
