Serious Christians spend a lot of time thinking about God, but in today’s episode Chuck and Aaron talk about what God thinks about his creatures.

Some people tend to think of God as a judge, and this of course is the way the Bible frequently talks about him as well. But the message of the gospel is that when God judges those who believe in Jesus he judges them “not guilty.” In other words, God’s attitude toward his people, even when he judges them, is acceptance and love: he thinks of them as his children and feels all the love that he feels for his own son, Jesus. And the Bible calls us as humans to begin thinking God’s thoughts after him, to begin loving others and facing outwards for the sake of others, like he does.
