The Platinum Rule (John 13:31-38)

Jesus gives his disciples a new command, and somehow it's both simpler and more demanding than anything he's asked before. Most of us know the golden rule, but Jesus isn't talking about that. He's raising the bar to something that, if we actually did it, would be unrecognizable to most of what gets called Christianity today. This episode sits in the space between Peter's boldness and his collapse, and asks what it actually looks like to follow Jesus when your theology of what that means turns out to be wrong.
