    Love, Not Hate | 1 John 3:13-24

    Love, Not Hate | 1 John 3:13-24

    The second half of John's epistle echoes the first and expands on the main theme. Love one another. This is not simply one of several options in the world, but an entirely different world - a world ruled by love. In this episode, we'll discover with St. John how love and hate are misidentified. We'll also learn to identify self-sacrificial, agape love, and how such love can be cultivated.
