Takeaways
Love is a fundamental aspect of human existence and is central to the teachings of the Bible.
The Bible describes four types of love: eros (romantic love), storge (family love), philia (friendship love), and agape (divine love).
Worldly love is based on self-interest and can be manipulated and misused, while biblical love is unconditional and sacrificial.
Loving the world and its values is incompatible with loving God, and it can lead to spiritual disconnection and enmity with God.
To connect to the source of love, one must pray, heal past wounds, and reflect on experiences of love.
