Episode 220: Rev. Chris Lee
In this episode, Chris Lee shares his own journey of discovering the deep, unconditional love of God, and how that truth can transform our lives and culture, even in the midst of anxiety, fear, and division. Chris reminds us that at the core of the gospel is the simple yet profound message that we are loved by God. He encourages us to stop, be still, and receive that love - not through our own efforts or worthiness, but simply by acknowledging who God is. As we navigate challenging cultural waters, Chris offers wisdom on avoiding the traps of judgment and instead reflecting the grace and peace of Christ. His words point us to the life-giving presence of the Holy Spirit, and how cultivating that awareness can bear fruit in our lives and relationships. Whether you're feeling weary, cynical, or simply hungry for more of God's love, I believe this conversation will nourish your soul and inspire you to know, deep in your heart, that you are beloved.
