Awesome passage. Is the text below the video about the song supposed to be a link? If so, I wasn’t able to open it on my phone. Was hoping it might have the lyrics to his song?

  Yeah, it is a link. The word ‘Here’ is linked to the lyrics and the story, as well as an mp3 of the song.

• Eberhard Jungel on thinking God as love

  'The statement “God is love” is formulated truth. If it is not to be diluted into a formula, then it must be both lived and thought. To think God as love is the task of theology. And in doing so, it must accomplish two things. It must, on the one hand, do justice to the essence of love, which as a predicate of God may not contradict what people experience as love. And on the other hand, it must do justice to the being of God which remains so distinctive from the event of human love that “God” does not become a superfluous word.'
