Episode notes

In John 15:12-13 (ESV), Jesus teaches about sacrificial love, saying, "This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends." This profound statement underscores the essence of true love, characterized by selflessness and sacrifice. Jesus' ultimate act of laying down His life for humanity sets the standard for how we are to love one another, demonstrating that genuine love often involves putting others' needs and well-being above our own, even at significant personal cost.
