As I Have Loved You

By Michael Lujan

As I Have Loved You is a historical narrative about the most radical claim Jesus made about his followers: that the world would recognize them by love.
Tracing the commandment through early Christianity and beyond, the book explores how faith is shaped-sometimes refined, sometimes distorted-by war, power, fear, and exile. From moments of spiritual beauty to episodes of terrifying betrayal, it asks a steady question: What happens when love stops being the badge of discipleship?

Blending accessible scholarship with immersive storytelling, As I Have Loved You offers history with a heartbeat-careful with facts, rich with human detail, and written for readers who want more than a textbook without drifting into historical fiction.
