115. Why Does Love Always Feel Like a Battlefield? (ft. Tom Oord)
About this episode
Thomas Jay Oord discusses the implications of a love-centered theology in Christianity.
One of the most dangerous things you could do in Christianity is actually take “God is love” seriously. Thomas Jay Oord returns! And this time, he’s sharing Volume 1 of his brand new Systematic Theology of Love. He explains why centering love doesn’t just reshape doctrine to be more biblical—it disrupts entire systems built on certainty, control, and having to be right about everything. We explore the implications of God’s existing within time instead of outside it, being affected by us instead of unchanging, and creating out of love instead of out of nothing. This isn’t your pastor’s stuffy systematic theology textbook from college. It’s practical, digestible, and, most importantly, it presents a God worth believing in.
