If you’re tired of pretending everything is fine, this is the book you need. Confronting Evil in Our Time - Now on Amazon https://amzn.to/3XgCodL
The conversation between Ian and Galen centers on themes of love, sacrifice, and the nature of divine and human relationships, drawing heavily on biblical ideas and C.S. Lewis’s The Screwtape Letters. Jesus teaches that the greatest commandment is to “love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength,” and the second is like it: “love your neighbor as yourself.” This foundational teaching shapes the entire Christian understanding of love—not as a feeling or an act of self-interest, but as a deliberate, sacrificial choice to seek the good of others and honor God above all else. The love Jesus commands is radical and countercultural, challenging us to look beyond competition and personal gain to embrace self-giving and genuine care for others.
In reflecting on Jesus’ commandment, we see that true love is best exemplified in His own life and death. Jesus sacrificed Himself on the cross, not for personal glory or out of obligation, but out of profound love for humanity and obedience to God. This act sets the standard for how we ought to love: with patience, kindness, and a willingness to put others before ourselves. Jesus’ love is not limited by conditions or circumstances; it is unconditional, forgiving, and transformative, calling us to live in a way that mirrors His example.
When we apply Jesus’ teaching to our relationships—whether in marriage, family, or community—we are called to practice love that is patient, selfless, and enduring. This kind of love does not seek its own advantage but rejoices in the well-being and growth of others. It is through living out this greatest commandment that we find true joy, meaning, and fulfillment, and it is this love that ultimately reflects the heart of God and the essence of Jesus’ message to the world.
