Corinthians

Been to a wedding ceremony this Summer? If so, it's quite likely you heard someone recite or give reference to First Corinthians thirteen. The famous love chapter. It gives to us a beautiful description of love. Today on Abounding Grace pastor Ed Taylor sets out to show us what agape love is all about.

Corinthians

We are going through First Corinthians right now. What would you say you're known for? Maybe it's your accomplishments at the workplace, or your wealth? Some are known as being a gossip, or an angry, bitter person. But wouldn't it be nice to be known as a loving person? That's actually what the Christian should be known for, and today we'll be encouraged in that direction. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/302/29

1st John 4:14 - 21

Miroslav Volf confronts Schopenhauer's pessimism and unquenchable thirst with a vision of love that affirms the world.“Unquenchable thirst makes for ceaseless pain. This befits our nature as objectification of the ceaseless and aimless will at the heart of reality. ... For Schopenhauer, the pleasure of satisfaction are the lights of fireflies in the night of life's suffering. These four claims taken together make pain the primordial, universal, and unalterable state of human lives.”In the second installment of his 2025 Gifford Lectures, Miroslav Volf examines the 19th-century philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer's radical rejection of the world. Through Schopenhauer's metaphysics of blind will and insatiable desire, Volf draws out the philosopher's haunting pessimism and hatred for existence itself. But Schopenhauer's rejection of the world—rooted in disappointed love—is not just a historical curiosity; Volf shows how our modern consumerist cravings mirror Schopenhauer's vision of unquenchable thirst and fleeting satisfaction. In response, Volf offers a theological and philosophical critique grounded in three kinds of love—epithumic (appetitive), erotic (appreciative), and agapic (self-giving)—arguing that agape love must be central in our relationship to the world. “Everything is a means, but nothing satisfies,” Volf warns, unless we reorder our loves. This second lecture challenges listeners to reconsider what it means to live in and love a world full of suffering—without abandoning its goodness.Episode Highlights“Unquenchable thirst makes for ceaseless pain. This befits our nature as objectification of the ceaseless and aimless will at the heart of reality.”“Whether we love ice cream or sex or God, we are often merely seeking to slake our thirst.”“If we long for what we have, what we have never ceases to satisfy.”“A better version is available—for whatever reason, it is not good enough. And we discard it. This is micro-rejection of the world.”“Those who love agape refuse to act as if they were the midpoint of their world.”Helpful Links and ResourcesThe World as Will and Representation by Arthur SchopenhauerParadiso by Dante AlighieriVictor Hugo's Les MisérablesA Brief for the Defense by Jack GilbertShow NotesSchopenhauer's pessimism as rooted in disappointed love of the worldGod's declaration in Genesis—“very good”—contrasted with Schopenhauer's “nothing is good”Job's suffering as a theological counterpoint to Schopenhauer's metaphysical despairHuman desire framed as unquenchable thirst: pain, boredom, and fleeting satisfactionSchopenhauer's diagnosis: we swing endlessly between pain and boredomThree kinds of love introduced: epithumic (appetite), erotic (appreciation), agapic (affirmation)Schopenhauer's exclusive emphasis on appetite—no place for appreciation or unconditional loveModern consumer culture mirrors Schopenhauer's account: desiring to desire, never satisfiedFast fashion, disposability, and market-induced obsolescence as symptoms of world-negation“We long for what we have” vs. “we discard the world”Luther's critique: “suck God's blood”—epithumic relation to GodAgape love: affirming the other, even when undeserving or diminishedErotic love: savoring the intrinsic worth of things, not just their utilityThe fleetingness of joy and comparison's corrosion of valueModern desire as invasive, subliminally shaped by market competitionDenigration of what is in favor of what could be—a pathology of dissatisfactionConsumerism as massive “micro-rejection” of the worldVolf's call to reorder our loves toward appreciation and unconditional affirmationTheology and metaphysics reframe suffering not as a reason to curse the world, but to love it betterPreview of next lecture: Nietzsche, joy, and the affirmation of all existenceProduction NotesThis podcast featured Miroslav VolfEdited and Produced by Evan RosaHosted by Evan RosaProduction Assistance by Taylor Craig and Macie BridgeA Production of the Yale Center for Faith & Culture at Yale Divinity School https://faith.yale.edu/aboutSupport For the Life of the World podcast by giving to the Yale Center for Faith & Culture: https://faith.yale.edu/giveSpecial thanks to Dr. Paul Nimmo, Paula Duncan, and the media team at the University of Aberdeen.

Graham Warmington speaks to us from 1 Corinthians 13

The weekly adult Sunday School class at OAG taught by Mr. Johnnie Powell.** Edited to remove personal information shared in the class and extended pauses **Title: The Challenge of Christian FellowshipSummary: In this lesson, Johnnie Powell discusses the importance of self-sacrificial agape love within the church, highlighting how often Christians can unintentionally become obstacles to each other in their faith journey.Lesson Outline:00:00 - Introduction and Prayer01:49 - Job's Dilemma and Confession03:46 - The Christian Community's Struggles05:51 - Paul's Transformation11:51 - Peter and Cornelius16:11 - Challenges and Persecution within the Church20:57 - Agape Love and the Call to Unity

Faith, honor, and agape love were both the Apostle Paul's personal and ministerial motivations. Everything the Apostle Paul did, was birthed from his relationship with, in, and through Christ, even in the midst of severe persecution, hardship, and continual threats of death.

What is agape love—and why is it so radically different from every other kind of love? In this kickoff episode of our Fruits of the Spirit series, Rowan and Pastor Don explore what it means to love like God loves: sacrificially, unconditionally, and with no strings attached. Through Scripture, honest conversation, and real-life stories, we contrast true agape love with the cultural counterfeits we often settle for. You'll discover how this divine love has the power to transform your relationships, reshape your community, and renew your faith.

In this sermon, Pastor Carolyn Wilson presents the Bible as a sweeping love story—a narrative of God relentlessly pursuing a relationship with humanity despite our frequent distractions and failures. She recaps how, through scripture, God seeks more than religious rituals or mere outward acts; what He truly desires is our wholehearted love and devotion. Carolyn centers her message on Jesus' affirmation of the Shema: to love God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength. She explains that: The heart represents our deepest affections and priorities; The soul encompasses our identity and life's essence; The mind involves our thoughts and understanding, which are to be shaped by God's truth; And our strength is lived out through obedient, sacrificial action. This kind of all-in love, Carolyn notes, is intensely practical, showing up in daily habits, decisions, and a consistent priority of God above all else. She acknowledges we can't love God perfectly on our own, but the Holy Spirit helps us grow in love and faithfulness. The sermon concludes with encouragement to not just recite God's Greatest Commandment but to truly live it, discovering our deepest fulfillment in a devoted relationship with Him.

Welcome to a special installment of the Lectern Q&A! This month's theme is Love as a Virtue and Existential Stance.

Joining John and Ethan is Ellie, who brings both a deeply reflective presence and insightful contributions to this exploration. Lectern Q&As are a monthly gathering where John and Ethan take questions from The Lectern's members, threading through important themes that are most pertinent and perplexing to the collective.

As we enter Holy Week, we're reminded of the profound lessons Jesus imparted in His final days. The central themes of love, forgiveness, and justice intertwine, forming the core of our Christian faith. Pastor Beth Burton reminds us that we're called to love deeply, forgive generously, and seek justice relentlessly - not as mere actions, but as a way of life. These principles, embodied by Christ on the cross, challenge us to examine our own lives. How can we love like Jesus, crossing boundaries and risking rejection? In what ways can we offer forgiveness as radical as Christ's 'Father, forgive them'? Where is God calling us to confront injustice in our world? As we reflect on these questions, we're invited to see ourselves through Christ's eyes, ransomed from fear and hatred, and given back to God.

Pastor Tim joins us for the "Path of Victory" series, guiding us through the final week of Jesus' life and the extraordinary love He displayed on the way to the cross. From Palm Sunday to the Last Supper, the cleansing of the temple to the crucifixion, every moment pointed to a Savior who loved fully and faithfully. Jesus' love wasn't just shown in words, but in every step He took to secure our salvation. // Verses and message notes: www.theridge.church/notes // Join us online or in person Sundays at 9a + 11a: www.theridge.church/live
