What If Love Is the Only Credential?

Welcome to today's episode of the Daily Bible Refresh with Dr. Brad Miller, where we explore the Gospel of John 13:31-35 from a progressive Christian perspective. In this session, Dr. Miller reflects on Jesus’ profound command to love one another, emphasizing how love is the true mark of discipleship and faithfulness. He discusses the transformative power of love in daily life, shares personal experiences illustrating the importance of patience, forgiveness, and genuine presence, and offers listeners practical steps to embody love in their own relationships. Dr. Miller also introduces useful resources, encourages community engagement, and invites listeners to support the mission of spreading the audible Word of God. Key Takeaways: Jesus’ new commandment—to love one another as he has loved us—is the foundation of Christian faith and practice. Love is not just a spiritual ideal, but the ultimate measure by which followers of Jesus are recognized and judged. Practicing love is a daily, communal process that involves patience, forgiveness, and continual growth alongside others. Faith should not lead to harshness, fear, or exclusion; instead, genuine love is reflected through presence, compassion, and generosity. Personal connections—such as family and community—often reveal the most authentic expressions of love, beyond credentials or achievements.
