Love yourself: A fresh perspective on 1 Corinthians 13 Get Your Spirit in Shape - United Methodist Podcast

- Christianity
1 Corinthians Chapter 13 often is referred to as the “love chapter.” Following the verses as a checklist of what love is, we might find that we’re better at loving others than we are at loving ourselves. But to practice the commandment that Jesus calls out as the second most important – Love your neighbor as yourself – it might be worthwhile to look at some of those verses from 1 Corinthians – “love is patient,” “Love is kind,” for the definition of self-love. Laurin Allred, a cradle United Methodist, joins us on “Get Your Spirit in Shape” for the conversation and challenges us to read the “love chapter” through a different lens.
