Sometimes the full truth stings and the half-truth feels good. This episode addresses the way that lies can sneak into our minds from seemingly trustworthy sources to tell us something our hearts desire to believe, even if it doesn't line up with God's Word. The lyrics from the song "Crazy About You" by Tauren Wells are discussed in light of God's truth from both the Old and New Testaments. Specifically discussed is the idea that God has never been mad at you, a declaration made in the song, but contradicted by the Bible; His wrath arises for both his own people and those that oppose him. The truth of this song is that God loves us greatly. However, the true love of God also corrects and convicts- and can come with expressions of emotions that are appropriate in such circumstances. That true love means guiding us to turn from our sin and towards our God who saves.
