this thursday (4/27) - love one another

John 15, 12-19:
This is my command: Love one another the way I loved you. This is the very best way to love. Put your life on the line for your friends. You are my friends when you do the things I command you. I'm no longer calling you servants because servants don't understand what their master is thinking and planning. No, I've named you friends because I've let you in on everything I've heard from the Father. You didn't choose me, remember; I chose you, and put you in the world to bear fruit, fruit that won't spoil. As fruit bearers, whatever you ask the Father in relation to me, he gives you. But remember the root command: Love one another.

what does it mean to love? does it require sacrifice? is it, as the lesson for this week states, putting your life on the line for others? come this thursday night to hear and explore just what love may be.
