Earlier this year, I had the privilege of teaching in Durban, South Africa, sharing practices designed to help us befriend our nervous systems and find greater balance in our lives.

During one session, a woman abruptly stood up, visibly angry, and shouted at me, “All we need is Jesus!” Her words were sharp, her tone confrontational. In that moment, I leaned deeply into the practices I was teaching—grounding myself, staying calm, and remaining within my window of tolerance. Fortunately, the situation calmed down, and she saw herself out.

Later, as I reflected on her words. I wondered if “All we need is Jesus” could also mean, “All we need is love.” After all, love lies at the heart of Jesus’ teachings. Love is what heals. Love is what transforms.

But love doesn’t just appear—it’s cultivated. It’s found in the way we hold space for one another, in forgiveness, in choosing kindness and mercy. Love is never rude, arrogant, or proud. It does no harm to its neighbor and recognizes no stranger.

That day in Durban reminded me of an essential truth: love isn’t just a feeling—it’s a practice. A way of being. And yes, it’s a revolution.
