Episode Details

In this opening message of Spirituality That Heals, Dr. Michael Youssef confronts the modern distortion of love and restores its true, biblical meaning. Teaching from Galatians 5:22–23, he shows that love—the first fruit of the Spirit—is not mere emotion or tolerance but self-giving action modeled by Christ Himself. True biblical love is most visible not in comfort but in conflict, sacrifice, and forgiveness. Dr. Youssef challenges believers to repent of counterfeit love, to be filled daily with the Holy Spirit, and to let Christ love others through them—even when hurt, rejected, or criticized—so that the Church becomes a living witness to God’s redeeming power.  If today’s teaching stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don’t have to walk through it alone.  🙏 Pastoral Care & Prayer Teams Our trained prayer partners and pastoral care team are available to pray with you and offer Biblical support. https://ltw.org/care 💬 Receive personal answers to your faith questions—anytime, day or night—at: https://myfaithassistant.com If you’ve been blessed by this podcast, please consider a tax-deductible donation to help extend this ministry—so another person can be encouraged, prayed for, and pointed to Christ. ❤️ Support Leading The Way: https://www.ltw.org/donate
