Crucifixion Type of Love – Video of the Week

Brent Rice, in this spoken word piece, is discussing the kind of love he wants to have for his wife. He refers to this love as a “crucifixion type of love,” meaning it is self-sacrificial and all-consuming. He wants to love his wife in the same way that Christ loved the Church, the way his wife’s heavenly Father loves her, and the way the Holy Spirit loves her soul.

This love is not only meant to be all-encompassing but also eternal. The speaker wants this love to have the ability to heal wounds caused by infidelity and insecurity. In order to love his wife in this way, he asks for the strength to do so and to be able to demonstrate this love through his actions.
