What Does God Love?

Marriage After God

About this episode

What does God love? While reading Psalm 37:28, "For the Lord loves justice," Aaron wondered where else the Bible tells us directly what God loves, and this episode of the Marriage After God podcast is the result. Aaron and Jennifer Smith walk through the Scriptures that name what God loves: the world (John 3:16), a cheerful giver (2 Corinthians 9:7), justice fulfilled at the cross (Psalm 37:28), righteous deeds (Psalm 11:7), the children of Israel (Hosea 3:1), the disciples who believed (John 16:27), and His Son (John 10:17). Their challenge is simple: if God loves it, maybe we should too. They apply cheerful giving directly to marriage and how spouses give to one another, and close with a prayer that God's steadfast love would change our hearts and radically impact the way we love our spouse.
