Love Breaks Bad

Sean takes us on a journey to unexpected places, both literal and metaphorical. We start with a nostalgic trip to "Jungle Java," a beloved childhood spot turned sour by an unfortunate incident—much like some perceptions of Christians today. With candid reflections, Sean explores how people perceive Jesus followers and what might be missing in how we embody His teachings.
From there, we dive into the essence of Jesus' message: love and restoration. Reflecting on how our actions as Christians shape others' views of God, we discuss the disconnect between Jesus' message of love and the perceived anger and judgment often associated with His followers.
Through personal stories and scripture, Sean unpacks the transformative power of seeing through God's eyes, of seeking His kingdom and justice in everyday life. He challenges traditional notions of righteousness to embrace a deeper call to love and inclusion, echoing Jesus' radical command to love one another as He loved us.
The episode features poignant anecdotes, including Tony Campolo's touching tale of a 3:30 a.m. birthday party in a diner, illustrating Jesus' desire for a church that brings joy and celebration to those in need. Sean discusses how small acts of kindness and love can redefine our communities and reflect God's kingdom on earth.
Join us as Sean explores what it truly means to follow Jesus in today's world—where love, not judgment, is the cornerstone of our faith.
