Christians are taught that God is love and are commanded to love, their neighbors and their enemies. These truths are not controversial. What is controversial is the meaning of this love. This book explores the tradition of Christian reflection on the meaning, and experience of love, loving, and being loved.
"This collection provides direct access to some of the most distinctive and influential biblical and Christian statements on loveIt situates these through succinct accounts of the circumstances in which they occur and the help of insights from a wide variety of scholars. The volume could be very useful as a text for classes not only on the subject of Christian love but as an overview of basic directions of Christian thought over the centuries. It is also accessible enough for more general reflection for Christians as individuals or in groups." -- Horizons
