147 Theological Virtues – The True Meaning of Love

Charity is the theological virtue by which we love God above all things for his own sake, and our neighbor as ourselves for the love of God. It is the New Commandment of Jesus Christ (Jn 13:34). In this episode we look at the nature of love, the third theological virtue, and how to put it into practice in your daily life. Don’t miss the inspiring examples of the saints that we talk about!

- The topics discussed can be found in the Catechism, numbers 1822-1829.

- You should definitely read the Encyclical “Deus Caritas Est” (God is Love) by Pope Benedict XVI. It’s amazingly enlightening. You will not regret having read it!!
