Avengers: Endgame follows a group of superheroes dealing with the aftermath of a universe-altering disaster. Tony Stark (Iron Man), a genius and billionaire known for his pride, ultimately sacrifices himself to save his friends and the world. His journey shows how love can transform even the most self-focused hearts.
Jesus told us plainly: the greatest love is the kind that lays itself down—not just in dramatic, heroic moments, but in everyday choices: listening, forgiving, staying patient, showing up when it’s inconvenient.
Love like that costs something—pride, comfort, time, or energy—but it also builds something lasting. When we love like Jesus, we create spaces for healing, shared burdens, and the presence of God to be felt.
Where are you being called to lay something down for someone else? What would it look like to love sacrificially in your relationships today?
Prayer: Jesus, thank you for laying down your life for me. Help me live with that kind of love, willing to serve and sacrifice for the good of others. Let my love reflect your heart. Amen.

About this Plan
Some of the most powerful stories on screen reflect the deeper truths of Scripture. Courage, grace, sacrifice, and hope—these moments echo the greatest story ever told: the Gospel. In this plan, we’ll connect popular movies with the Bible, exploring how God’s truth shines through even in the stories we watch. These films aren’t a replacement for the Bible—they’re a lens to help us see redemption, compassion, and purpose in a new way. (Fair warning: there may be some spoilers!)
