Love is the greatest of the virtues, and perhaps the most misunderstood.
This section of Christ & Creed is devoted to love in all its forms: affection, friendship, romantic love, and charity.
Here we reflect on marriage, family, friendship, community, mercy, forgiveness, hospitality, sacrifice, and the difficult work of loving real people.
Christian love is not mere sentiment. It is the self-giving love revealed in Christ: patient, truthful, costly, merciful, and alive.
