24. There is nothing in the world like LOVE | John Ortberg
In this message, John speaks to those facing anxiety and heartbreak, urging them to “not let your heart be troubled,” because love—true, sacrificial love—is the only way to live with peace in a troubled world. Rooted in Jesus’ command to “love one another as I have loved you,” John draws on Scripture, personal stories, and cultural references—from Inside Out and Saving Private Ryan to ancient Roman values—to show that the most transformative kind of love is the one that suffers willingly for others. Unlike Greco-Roman ideals that reserved sacrifice for the worthy, Jesus offers a love that dies for the unworthy, changing the meaning of suffering and friendship forever. Whether through a friend’s call, a stranger’s kindness, or Christ’s death on the cross, we are invited to live in love and be shaped by it.
