What identifies us as followers of Jesus? In John 13:34–35, Jesus points to the way we love one another. In this message, I look at what it means to love as Jesus loved us—even when people disappoint us, irritate us, or hurt us. Biblical love becomes visible through forgiveness, patience, practical help, and a willingness to take the first step. It tells the truth, seeks another person’s good, and refuses to let bitterness control our hearts.
