About this listen
In this episode I ask a simple question: are you going to live for love, or are you going to die by hate?
I grew up in a church tradition where people were often asked to decide whether they were going to heaven or hell if they died that night. I understand the intention behind that question, but after more than fifty years of pastoral ministry, I’ve come to believe there’s a better question to ask: how are you going to live today?
When Jesus taught us to pray, he didn’t teach us to pray about escaping earth and going somewhere else someday. He taught us to pray, “Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” That means heaven is something we begin living now by choosing love.
In this conversation I invite you to consider changing your address today if your life has been shaped by resentment, division, or hate. Because when we live by love, we really live. When we live by hate, something inside us starts dying.
If you want a different destination, then change your address today. Choose love. Choose heaven on earth.
