In this week’s podcast, we mentioned a telecast by Mr. Gerald Weston titled “What Is the Greatest Love?” Here it is!

Love is a very good thing. After all, the Apostle John said “God is love” for a reason. But both the world and individuals in the world weaponize “love” in a number of ways that, frankly, have nothing to do with real love, at all. Join us this week as we explain how.
We often talk in sermons and articles about parenting, but what about being more parentable? What can you do that will allow God to more fully lead and develop you through the parents He has given you? Join us as we take a look together!

A week ago, there was a lot of buzz about a simulation in which an A.I. drone was said to have chosen to attack its own side to prevent its human controller from holding it back as it sought to destroy enemy targets. Then, word came that it was all supposedly a “thought experiment.” Meanwhile, experts sign a letter claiming that A.I. could cause human extinction. Will A.I. destroy the world? (Spoiler alert… Short answer: “No.” Long answer: “OK, maybe a little—and, in the meantime, what career are you interested in, again?”) Join us this week as we think biblically about these things!
Here are some links to content mentioned in this week’s podcast, plus a little extra, like Mr. DeSimone’s coincidentally titled LCN article. Check them out!

Today, we ask a question that’s important for each of us to answer: Why the Living Church of God? Contrary to the sentiment of many in this world, Jesus is not an “attend the church of your choice” sort of Messiah. He wants us to attend the church of His choice. There are real, biblical guidelines for discovering where Christ is working and where you should go, and we discuss them in this episode of the Living Youth Podcast. Just click below on the platform of your choice to get started. (The articles mentioned in the podcast will be listed in a post to immediately follow this one.)

A change of pace this week, since my podcast partner, Mr. Robinson, is out of town. It’s a bit nerdy (specifically of the “soundtrack nerd” variety of nerdy), but there has long been a subtle cue in the movie music of John Williams that I have appreciated. Not only has it helped me to admire him as a composer, it has provided for me an illustration of the need for spiritual discernment. If you will forgive my lack of technical prowess (I just play the music right out of my speaker instead of editing it into the video), I hope this discussion helps get that idea across. If it isn’t terrible (and be honest with me, I can take it…), I’ll try to follow up in the future with a Michael Giacchino-themed lesson that goes hand in hand with this one.
