The takeaways from this episode:

A love letter flatters, the Bible forms and informs.
It is okay to read the Bible to glean information. In fact, it’s necessary to do so.
If we make sentimental feelings our standard, we make a major percentage of the Bible completely irrelevant.
Over time, as we read the holy Scriptures and seek to live them out, they change us.
