L O V E--Is Coming

And so it begins. It's time to talk about the 'L' word. You know, the one that we "hear" too much but never really listen to it.

You know what I mean, right? Love.

We'll tell our parents, grandparents, brothers and sisters, friends that we love them and in the same breath, we'll talk about how much we love a new car or a certain pair of jeans.

I mean, I love my parents, and I also love UK basketball?

Have we lost the meaning of love within our culture? Have we failed to remember how sacred a word it really is and how sacred we are as humans?

Love. What does it mean? What is it good for?

What does the Bible have to say about it?

Jesus loves me this I know, for the Bible tells me so...but where though?

[Love] is called Agape in the New Testament to distinguish from Eros [sexual love], Storge [family affection], and Philia [friendship]. So there are four kinds of love, all good in their proper place, but Agape is the best because it is the kind God has for us and is good in all circumstances.
