Experiencing the Steadfast Love of God – with Sam Storm

Published on by nickcadyLeave a comment

The Theology for the People Podcast is back for a new season!

Season 5 began last week with an initial episode about the Using AI in Christian Ministry, in which Pastor Mike Neglia and I discuss the ethics, dangers, and best practices of using AI for Christian ministry.

In the latest episode, I speak with theologian, author, and pastor Sam Storms about what it truly means to experience the love of God.

In a culture where love is often redefined and misunderstood, how can we anchor ourselves in the steadfast love that Scripture proclaims? We discuss how culture has distorted the meaning of love, the biblical concept of God’s covenantal and unshakable love, and why love is meant to be more than just a doctrine we affirm—it’s meant to be a reality we feel.

Sam and I also explore how God’s love transforms us, the tension between love and truth in our world today, and practical steps for keeping ourselves in the love of God.

Resources Mentioned:
• Sam’s new book: The Steadfast Love of the Lord

In this episode of the Theology for the People podcast I speak with Dr. Philip Ryken, who is the President of Wheaton College in Wheaton, Illinois. He has a Doctorate in Philosophy from Oxford University, and he is the author of over 50 books. His latest book is called Beauty is Your Destiny: How the Promise of Splendor Changes Everything.  

In this episode, Dr. Ryken and I discuss the role of beauty in theology. Dr. Ryken points out that Beauty is not a topic that is often discussed in theological circles, but it should be, both as a lens through which we view theological topics such as forgiveness, or atonement, or justice, and even as an attribute of God and the end result of God’s work of redemption in our lives and in the world.
