Lisa A. Phillips new book “First Love: Guiding Teens Through Relationships and Heartbreak” chronicles the challenges that adolescents face as they navigate the world of love and the challenges that adults face as they try to provide support and guidance from the perspective of a mother, professor, and award-winning journalist.

That all-consuming, dizzying feeling is what acclaimed poet Seán Hewitt captures in his debut novel, Open, Heaven. The book follows a teenager named James, whose first love is made complicated by his own sexuality and the realities of the rural English village where he lives. Seán joins Mattea to talk about the difference between love and desire, the role of nature in his work and why Ireland is such fertile ground for poets. If you enjoyed this conversation, check out these episodes:Alan Hollinghurst: Coming of age in Britain and writing through the gay gazeEmma Knight: 'Bad' mothers make good stories — and are more true-to-life

- Revelation 2 / Crawford Loritts offers the 2nd part of his message, “Recapturing Your First Love.” Revelation 2 contains a stark warning for followers of Christ to not forsake the love we first had for the Lord. We may be involved in many good programs at church or ministries throughout our communities, but if love for Jesus is not central, we’re laboring in vain. Crawford Loritts helps us evaluate just where we stand with the Lord.Donate to Moody Radio: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/livingalegacySee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

First Love - Coming Back To Where You Started With Jesus   

In this episode, we dive deep into what might be the most overlooked truth in all of spiritual practice: you must be taught how to love yourself. Augustine got it wrong. So did many traditions that assume self-love is innate or automatic. I argue the opposite—self-love is a discipline, a mystery, and a prerequisite for any true love of God or neighbor. From the Shema to the Upanishads, from trauma healing to kenosis, we uncover how the love of self—rightly understood—is not vanity, but sacred charity. This is not self-help fluff. This is soul-deep recovery work. And it just might be the missing link in both East and West.

- Revelation 2 / It’s so easy to get wrapped up in the outwardly visible part of our Christian lives and fail to maintain a warm and growing relationship with our heavenly Father. It’s never a good idea to neglect the One in whom our life’s direction rests. Do we need to return to our first love for the Lord?Donate to Moody Radio: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/livingalegacySee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Doug and Dr Talia look at the power of first love from many angles. Are we obsessing or just nostalgic? How can we make our warm memories fuel a warmer current relationship? How can we reclaim the parts of us we have lost that were merely highlighted in those early relationships? And is there a pattern in when we feel that longing? Could it be when we feel disconnected in our current relationship? Tune in and find out!

Ashley Newbrough and Steve Lund star with solid support from Mindy Cohn in "Jenna's First Love."

First Love | Dear Church People | Week 1 | Jared Callahan

In this powerful live Facebook episode, I open the door to a conversation that so many people quietly reflect on but rarely discuss out loud — *why don't most people marry their first love?* We often grow up with the fairytale idea that the first person we fall for will be the person we spend forever with. But real life often tells a different story. In this episode, I unpack the deep emotional, psychological, and sometimes spiritual reasons why so many people walk away from their first love, even if the connection was strong and the feelings were real. We explore the lessons that first loves teach us — from innocence, excitement, and discovery to heartbreak, immaturity, and unrealistic expectations. I share stories, not just from my personal experiences, but also from conversations I've had with others who wrestled with the “what if” of their first love and why they ultimately didn't choose to build a life with that person. We talk about timing, emotional growth, the role of family influence, fear of settling, and how sometimes, the first love was meant to shape you — not to stay with you. Many people outgrow the person they once adored, realizing that who you are at 16, 18, or even 22 is not who you will be at 30 or 40. This episode isn't just about nostalgia — it's about healing, understanding, and finding peace with the past. If you've ever wondered if you made the right decision or struggled with holding on to memories of a love that didn't last, this conversation will give you clarity and freedom. Some first loves are simply teachers on the journey to who you're really meant to be with.

What happens when a church starts strong but loses sight of what truly matters? The early church in Ephesus had an incredible legacy—planted by the Apostle Paul, led by Timothy, and even home to the Apostle John and Mary. But despite their theological strength, Jesus had a serious warning for them: they had lost their first love.    In this conversation, Pastor Josh and Jana Howerton, along with Pastor Carlos Erazo, dive into the powerful message behind the letter to the Ephesians in Revelation 2. They explore how distraction, culture, and even good theology can become barriers to genuine love for Christ. Plus, hear about Pastor Josh's eye-opening journey through the ancient ruins of Ephesus, the surprising history behind the Jesus fish symbol, and what it all means for believers today. If you've ever felt like your faith has lost its fire, this conversation is for you!
