About this listen

In this episode of the Friendship Church Podcast, Pastors Kenny, Jason, Joel, and Matt explore the fourth Advent candle—love—and unpack why English words can be so confusing along the way. From “run” and “bat” to “hot” and “right,” the pastors have some fun highlighting the quirks of our language before turning to the richness of biblical love. They discuss the distinctions behind Greek words like agape and phileo, how Scripture differentiates human love from God’s sacrificial love, and why the “Angel’s Candle” points us to Christ’s arrival. Drawing from passages such as Matthew 5 and Romans 5, the conversation centers on how God’s unconditional love sustains us between the “already” and the “not yet,” and how our own ability to love well flows from staying connected to the One who is love.
