Love One Another As I Have Loved You PUBLIC MINISTRY Love One Another As I Have Loved You BY SUSAN LUTZ In the last few days before His crucifixion, inclinations. It’s about God, and the life- Jesus introduced a new command to His changing power of His love when God pours it disciples: “As I have loved you, love one out on us. Nothing about Jesus’ command another.” In John 13-17, Jesus reflects seven makes any sense at all unless we start there. times on the deep interpersonal unity on which this command rests.1 How Has God Loved Us? There are several amazing things about it. To understand God and His love, we need One is that this simple formula is anything but. to begin with the fact that God is a Trinity—one It’s simple like “e=mc2” is simple. Jesus’ God in three persons—Father, Son, and Holy command opens you up to worlds within Spirit. This is not something we can understand, yourself and the heavenly realms at the same but it is the truth. Someone once said, “If you try time, as you consider the vastness of God’s love to understand the Trinity completely, you will for you and what needs to happen in you to offer lose your mind. But if you deny the Trinity, you that same kind of love to others. will lose your soul.” We are asked simply to Another amazing thing about this believe that God has revealed His nature to us command is that Jesus should give it at all! After honestly. all, God is the ultimate realist. He is not As the Trinity, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit oblivious to our sin, and He is not stupid or had the perfect relationship throughout all naïve about human nature. After living among eternity. They knew each other completely and us for thirty-three years, certainly Jesus knew loved each other totally. They enjoyed perfect that we are not creatures who are motivated to harmony and unity of purpose with a diversity of love as He has loved us, nor capable of loving at roles. There was never a moment of discord, that level if we were willing. anger, hurt, jealousy, competition, bitterness, or So why does He give this command? He greed. It was absolute sinless perfection. As the gives it because of who God is. This command is Trinity, God didn’t need someone to talk to. He not about us and our natural abilities and didn’t need anyone else to glorify Him or complete Him.

God’s Love as Creator And the brokenness was seen first in The way God created us reveals His love relationships. That was the first thing to go. for us, because He created us in such a way that Adam and Eve saw they were naked, and they we would be able to know Him. We were never hid from each other and from God. Three meant to live independently, apart from Him. chapters into the Bible and we have rebellion, He gave us a mind, emotions, will, and a fear, and self-protection. Soon after, they began conscience, the ability to communicate, and an blaming each other and God for the mess they appreciation for things beyond ourselves, were in. “The woman You gave me—she gave including beauty, truth, love, and justice. All me some fruit and I ate it.” All of a sudden there these qualities reflect God’s intention in Genesis are accusations and blameshifting, arrogance 1:26 to make us in His image. and anger. The image of God is not totally This means that we get our identity from destroyed, but it was just as the serpent had said: our connection to God. We get our purpose for they became like God, but without Him. You can our lives from our connection to God. We still see the image of God in man, but everything understand reality because He teaches us. We is distorted. live in relationships with Him and with others because He gave us those relationships. God God’s Love as Redeemer said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I But right there begins the second way God will make a helper suitable for him.” Part of loves us—as Redeemer. He promises to rescue being made in the image of God is to have us from sin and death. In Genesis 3:15, He tells people with whom—at least spiritually—you Satan, “I will put enmity between you and the can be naked and not ashamed: people—not woman, between your offspring and hers; he will just spouses—with whom you have a joyful crush your head and you will strike his heel.” sense of being welcomed, accepted, and Someday, one of Eve’s descendents would come understood. and destroy Satan. In v. 21, God makes a For a brief time, everything was wonderful. sacrifice. He covers Adam and Eve’s nakedness God walked with Adam and Eve in the garden with animal skins. Before this, there had been in the cool of the day. It was as close to heaven no death, but now a creature’s blood was shed to as you could get. But Adam and Eve failed to cover Adam and Eve’s shame. This is a glimmer appreciate it. The serpent came along and began of what God was preparing to do to bring us attacking their relationship with God. He didn’t back to Him. The rest of the Bible records the just try to get them to eat fruit. He began by way God worked out that plan of salvation. breeding distrust in God’s character and motives. As we read that record, we discover that “Did God really say?” he questioned. He argued, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy “God doesn’t really love you.

But God’s love for us Isn’t it ironic that the creatures God made prevailed and God went after us, to rescue us in His image were lured away from Him with the and buy us back. Why? To restore us to a promise that they would be like God? They were relationship with Him, and to restore in us the already like God! But this time, they became like image of God.

  • Enter Love a Musical for Our Times
    ENTER LOVE A MUSICAL FOR OUR TIMES BY LYNN LUPOLD [MUSIC AND LYRICS] AND DON SEYBOLD [BOOK] Kenny Shepard Staging & Adaptation http://offthewallplays.com Copyright c 2010 All Rights Reserved Used by Permission a Red Boat Production,LLC COMPLETE FINAL WORKING SCRIPT FOR “ENTER LOVE” 1 SYNOPSIS Enter Love is a musical about the nature and vicissitudes of romantic relationships in the first decade of the 21st century. It is set in an international airport, located in a large city somewhere in the mid-west. The production consists of a series of encounters—with dialogue and music—that take place between an assortment of couples and individuals at various locations—arrival and departure concourses, waiting lounges, baggage check, a coffee shop, restaurant, observation deck, and the central location, a bar—in the airport. The terminal provides a physical space which all of the various characters could actually inhabit at more or less the same time. It also serves as a symbolic space that represents the rapid pace, transient nature, and difficulties of establishing and maintaining relationships of any sort, let alone those involving love and romance. During the course of the production the audience witnesses various manifestations and stages of romantic relationships as the characters pass through on their way from one flight to another, and many times from one delayed, canceled, or redirected journey to another, or the continuation of a relationship full of, as pilots like to say, “Chop.”. In spite of all the difficulties there seems to remain in most of the characters, albeit salted with various levels of cynicism, skepticism, and seemingly endless failures, both a deep-seated desire for and a fragile, flickering hope that they will connect and they will at last fly first class and non-stop beside the one they really love and who really loves them.

  • BOBBY CHARLES LYRICS Compiled by Robin Dunn & Chrissie Van Varik
    BOBBY CHARLES LYRICS Compiled by Robin Dunn & Chrissie van Varik. Bobby Charles was born Robert Charles Guidry on 21st February 1938 in Abbeville, Louisiana. A native Cajun himself, he recalled that his life “changed for ever” when he re-tuned his parents’ radio set from a local Cajun station to one playing records by Fats Domino. Most successful as a songwriter, he is regarded as one of the founding fathers of swamp pop. His own vocal style was laidback and drawling. His biggest successes were songs other artists covered, such as ‘See You Later Alligator’ by Bill Haley & His Comets; ‘Walking To New Orleans’ by Fats Domino – with whom he recorded a duet of the same song in the 1990s – and ‘(I Don’t Know Why) But I Do’ by Clarence “Frogman” Henry. It allowed him to live off the songwriting royalties for the rest of his life! Two other well-known compositions are ‘The Jealous Kind’, recorded by Joe Cocker, and ‘Tennessee Blues’ which Kris Kristofferson committed to record. Disenchanted with the music business, Bobby disappeared from the music scene in the mid-1960s but returned in 1972 with a self-titled album on the Bearsville label on which he was accompanied by Rick Danko and several other members of the Band and Dr John. Bobby later made a rare live appearance as a guest singer on stage at The Last Waltz, the 1976 farewell concert of the Band, although his contribution was cut from Martin Scorsese’s film of the event. Bobby Charles returned to the studio in later years, recording a European-only album called Clean Water in 1987.

  • The Scars That Have Shaped Me: How God Meets Us in Suffering
    “Vaneetha writes with creativity, biblical faithfulness, com- pelling style, and an experiential authenticity that draws other sufferers in. Here you will find both a tested life and a love for the sovereignty of a good and gracious God.” —JOHN PIPER, author of Desiring God; founder and teacher, desiringGod.org “The Scars That Have Shaped Me will make you weep and rejoice not just because it brims with authenticity and integrity, but because every page points you to the rest that is found in entrusting your life to one who is in complete control and is righteous, powerful, wise, and good in every way.” —PAUL TRIPP, pastor, author, international conference speaker “I could not put this book down, except to wipe my tears. Reading Vaneetha’s testimony of God’s kindness to her in pain was exactly what I needed; no doubt, many others will feel the same. The Scars That Have Shaped Me has helped me process my own grief and loss, and given me renewed hope to care for those in my life who suffer in various ways. Reveling in the sovereign grace of God in your pain will bolster your faith like nothing this world can offer, and Vaneetha knows how to lead you to this living water.” —GLORIA FURMAN, author of Missional Motherhood and Alive in Him “When we are suffering significantly, it’s hard to receive truth from those who haven’t been there. But Vaneetha Risner’s credibility makes us willing to lean in and listen. Her writing is built on her experience of deep pain, and in the midst of that her rugged determination to hold on to Christ.” —NANCY GUTHRIE, author of Hearing Jesus Speak into Your Sorrow “I have often wondered how Vaneetha Risner endures suffering with such amazing joy, grace, and perseverance.
