Ep 027: John, the OG of love
Manage episode 389002514 series 3515918
John, the disciple whom Jesus loved. Just ask him, he’ll tell you. But we are actually the ones who Jesus loves and we should be able to say that with as much confidence and boldness as the apostle John did.
But did you know that John wasn’t always so loving? He and his brother were actually nicknamed the “sons of thunder.” John even asked Jesus to rain down fire on the people of Samaria at one point!
But just like Paul, James and so many others in the Bible, Jesus came along and did a huge work in John’s life and he was forever transformed and became an ambassador of love. He especially encourages us to show love to the outcast, marginalized and forgotten. But this is something we’re still getting wrong today.
Kat Von D, famous tattoo artist and former star on her show LA Ink, recently gave her life to Jesus and went public with her faith. Amen, right? Well, her biggest critics and the people she experienced the most vitriol and hate from were those who professed Jesus as their Lord and Savior. Sad reality. We need to do better!
