This week we address some cultural misconceptions about "Love."

Welcome to "Inside The Cup Podcast" with Mike and Holly Walsh

Season 1: "How to Love Your Neighbor as Yourself"
Episode 5: "What Love Is NOT"

What we call “love” today seems to be significantly off the mark from the biblical picture we discussed last week in Episode 4. If that's true than it needs some adjustment, and we need to think about love differently, because love is real. It is something that actually exists, and we want to understand the reality properly if we are going to interact with it properly in our everyday lives.

Mike and Holly discuss how love is not a "feeling," but rather a "choice," or a decision of the will. They discuss the idea of being "in-love," as well as the idea of "unconditional love," which we hear often in common usage.

Both the biblical model of agape love and our current cultural depiction of love are applied to Jesus, and it becomes clear that we need to rethink the way we are using the term "love" today.
