Summary

We all have “love issues.” John 13:35 says that love is to be our identifying mark as Christians – not our wisdom or spiritual gifts or activity – but being a loving person is difficult.   Jada Edwards has a new book out called A New Way to Love Your Neighbor that she wrote out of a season where she struggled to love well. The Lord revealed to her that she couldn’t be the originator of grace for other people. She needed God to reveal His love for her specifically, continually, so she’d be filled up with love to give.   Jada and the Perrys explore the definition of agape love in which the person initiating the love determines the value of the one they love. They talk about how Biblical love for others almost always requires decision – deciding to love – instead of affection. And ultimately, love needs wisdom to be effective. We need to slow down, pray, and ask Holy Spirit to guide us in how to love.   Scripture references: John 13:35 1 John 4:8 Connect with Jada: https://www.instagram.com/jada_edwards/   This Episode is Sponsored By:   https://gominno.com — Get your first month FREE when you use code PERRY at sign up.

Hey, Saints and Ains. How are you?

0:08.0

What's up with y'all? Hope you're blessed. Hope you're highly favored. Like Mary,

0:11.4

Christ, Mary's mom. Yeah. It's Jesus' mom. Yeah. Remember? I don't know how you feel

0:17.2

that, you know, the world ain't, because this episode came out later, but like yesterday people thought the world was about the end because it was like the whole week of, like the rapture and stuff like that. Guess what? We're still here. This is the, this is the thing. I didn't know that was a thing until I was on threads. And I just kept seeing a lot of people talk about the rapture. And I'm like, why are we talking about the talking about the thing I was going and I didn't pay a lot of attention to it because I just don't have the energy I'm I'm close to 40 and I'm getting I'm getting to that point I don't just care about stuff it's just like that's stupid but at the same time it was like I don't know I can't explain what I mean yeah I saw people on TikTok buying crackers and water and trying to find a shelter. And I'm like, wow, y'all really believe this. I mean, y'all don't believe Mark and Matthew. Is it? No man. It's given. Know the hour all the day. It's giving. I think most people knew it was a sham. But for those who did it, it gives, I'm going to say this lovingly, you're not reading your Bible.

1:15.7

Or you're reading it and not believing it.

1:17.2

I know we're not talking about.

1:18.5

Can we just briefly talk about why do you think so many people believed it?

1:22.8

They're not reading their Bibles.

1:24.4

But I think it's something under there.

1:27.4

Well, I think also people are

1:29.0

addicted to conspiracy and prophecy. And so they might think that somebody has a special

1:35.7

insight or prophetic word. He coming in a Hyundai. That is distinct from God's authoritative reveal

1:41.3

word. And so they're leaning on the word of a so-called prophet rather than actual scripture. Yeah, because I think that we... That's a guess. I think that we love getting information that that's not in the scriptures because we just love, like, secret things. Yeah, it's narcissism. Yeah, it's so different than in the garden. It's like, ooh, I'm in the, I'm in the divine in crowd, and I know something that you don't know, so I'm going to get cans. And why are you getting cans? Shouldn't you be preparing to go? Yes. If you're getting cans, that should be an indictment on your faith. That's actually a very good point. That's just me. Yeah, it's just, it's wanted to have knowledge that God didn't give her. To this day, we want knowledge that God did not give us. But what we do know is that Jada Edwards is here with us. We know that. We're not by one can or cracker. I'm not preparing to stay. Uh-huh. We're going to be caught up in the sky. Go. Okay. Make you,

2:34.2

most of the stove is off.

2:35.2

How you,

2:35.6

how are you doing Mrs.

2:36.6

Mrs. Edwards?

2:37.5

I am blessed.

2:38.6

And I'm highly favorite.

2:39.7

I'm so glad to you.

2:40.3

And your outfit dripping.

2:41.6

Yeah, it is. Oh, well, thank you. It matches the tone of the couch and things.
