*** Romantic love (eros)
*** Friendship (philos)
*** Family, those close to us (storge)
Agape
*** BDAG Dfn
*** N/S — A primarily non-sexual love, and while we use this text at weddings, it applies to the Christian’s call to love in general
*** Missing piece: If we don’t have love—agape—our Christian lives will never be whole or complete
1 Corinthians 13:4–8 (NRSV)
Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant
or rude.
It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful;
it does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth.
It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never ends...
*** Angry mob.
We’ve got this mentality now that threatens our ability to love—us v them, good v evil, completely correct v completely wrong
*** Missing the mark.
If we don’t have love, we’ll miss the mark every time.
