| 0:00.0 | A.W. Tozer once warned that the church had traded its high view of God for something so low, |
| 0:14.4 | so ignoble as to be unworthy of thinking people. That was 50 years ago, and things haven't improved. But today, on Insight |
| 0:23.7 | for Living, Chuck Swindall cuts through the noise of a theologically shallow culture to recover |
| 0:29.2 | something ancient, revolutionary, and life-changing. The love of God, as Scripture actually describes |
| 0:36.1 | it. Not a feeling, not a sentiment, a force so vast, |
| 0:40.3 | so unconditional, so relentlessly personal that it will reframe everything you thought you knew. I would like to give you 12 words that I hope you will never, ever forget. |

| 1:55.9 | pure, satisfying, and deep. |
| 2:00.0 | I'll go further. |
| 2:01.5 | If we shape our thinking about God from the culture around us, |
| 2:06.3 | our life will remain complicated and even become chaotic. |
| 2:12.6 | But if we allow Holy Scripture to shape our thinking, |
| 2:16.9 | God will emerge in our minds as he is, |
| 2:21.3 | real, personal, meaningful, all-powerful. What we think about God is the most important thing |
| 2:32.0 | about us. |
