A Systematic Theology of Love with Thomas Jay Oord

What if love wasn’t just one topic in theology—but the center of everything?
In this episode, we sit down with theologian Thomas Jay Oord to discuss his new book A Systematic Theology of Love: God and Creation. Oord argues that if Christians truly believe “God is love,” then love should shape how we understand God, creation, evil, and the future.
We talk about why love has rarely been the organizing principle of systematic theology, how Oord defines love as acting to promote the well-being of others, and why traditional ideas about divine power—especially omnipotence—often clash with a genuinely loving God. He also introduces his concept of amipotence, a vision of God’s power expressed through uncontrolling love.
Along the way we explore big questions:
• Why hasn’t theology centered love before?
• Can a loving God coexist with suffering and evil?
• What does “amipotence” mean for how we understand God’s power?
• And what would change if love truly became the center of Christian theology?
Whether you’re a theology nerd, a pastor, or someone rethinking faith, this conversation invites you to reconsider what it really means to say God is love
