In this episode, Dr. Abigail L. Rosenthal joins her husband Dr. Jerry L. Martin on his podcast God An Autobiography to ask a question deeply human and spiritually profound:

What is love and what does it reveal about the nature of the world we live in?

Jerry and Abigail remind us that truth is not always found in the dominant worldview. Often, it comes from moments that break through: a glance, a conversation, a shared fight for something that matters.

This intimate dialogue speaks to those who live at the edge of conventional categories, those who are spiritual but not religious, seekers of meaning, lovers of wisdom.

If you’ve ever felt there must be more to love than psychology, more to life than surface logic, this is your episode.

Begin here. With feeling. With thought. With two philosophers, in love.
