How Will They Know? (John 13:31-35)
"I’ve seen people proclaim their love in some pretty suspicious ways.
"I’ve seen women with bruises all over their bodies, permanently scarred on their souls from having been “loved” too intensely by the men in their lives.
"I’ve seen homeless LGBTQ kids who’ve been “loved” out into the street by families with Jesus dripping from their lips.
"I’ve seen women clothed in shame by people who loudly proclaim their “love,” as these women seek to make decisions about their health, their bodies, and their lives.
"I’ve seen people kicked off food stamps by Christian politicians who announce their “love” with words like “personal responsibility” and “incentivizing the poor.”
"I’ve seen people who claim to follow Jesus “love” immigrants by putting their children in cages.
"Love, at least the way it gets enacted in our world, appears to be a much more malleable concept than we like to believe."
