Today we turn to Pixar's "Toy Story." Jesus calls us his friends because we do what he has commanded us to do. To be a friend is a wonderful gift, which is why it is so painful when a friendship is lost. Our scripture reading is John 15:12-17.

We have edited out portions of this sermon that contain copyrighted video clips from the movie Toy Story. To watch these clips at home on your own copy of the movie, please refer to the following timestamps, or watch the clips on YouTube at the links below:
