Christian Theology: Is It a Good Idea to Imitate God?

Christianity proclaims that God is love, but opinions differ about what that means. People also disagree over what the implications of divine love are for doctrines like creation and hell. In today’s episode, I sit down with Dr Jordan Wessling to discuss his recent book, Love Divine: A Systematic Account of God’s Love for Humanity. We get into all sorts of interesting topics related to love, rationality, emotions, creation, and hell.
