2 Different Loves, A Misunderstanding & Becoming Like Jesus

1)

Culture's version of love:

• a verb
• an intense feeling or deep affection
• what you can fall in & out of
• a race to the "front of the line"
• something that ultimately satisfies / fulfills / benefits you 

True health's version of love: 

• a verb & noun
• an others-first way of life that creates life-giving relationships
• a willful act to place the good of another above yourself
• a race to the "back of the line"
• something that ultimately satisfies / fulfills / benefits someone else 

2)

A common misunderstanding of health: 

Health is a season, fad, phase or "kick." (i.e. "You're just in a big health kick right now.")

Truth:

Health is about quality of life for the duration of life, not just for one season of life. 

3)

"Becoming like Jesus is as much as about having a relaxed and joyful heart as it is about believing and doing the right thing

... as much about proper energy as about proper truth."

– Catholic priest, author & theologian Ronald Rolheiser
