Unstoppable: How the New Commandment Binds a Fractured World (John 13:31-38)
In a world that often feels like it is spinning out of control, we look for something—or someone—to hold it all together. We live in a fractured reality where, ever since the Tower of Babel, humanity has been scattered and divided. We find the disciples at this exact precipice. Their leader, Jesus Christ, is about to depart. But unlike any other leader in history, Jesus does not leave His followers to scatter. Instead, He provides them with the "glue" that will bind them together for eternity: a New Commandment.
The Radical Nature of the Love of Christ: A Deep Dive into John 13
In our modern world, we are constantly bombarded by a "me-centered" culture. From the pressure to be the best in our careers to the competitive nature of the two-and-a-half trillion-dollar sports industry, there is an innate drive in almost everyone to be noticed, to be seen, and to claim the "top spot". But the Kingdom of God offers a radical alternative. In John 13:1-20, Jesus demonstrates a better way.
