Intro to MWA 2, "Agape"

Introduction to MWA 2 Description is an essay written about the Greek word for love, agape (unconditional love) also known as “God’s Love”. This essay explains some of the other Greek words Eros (physical love) and Philia (friendship love), which helps the reader understand just how different God’s unconditional love is from our typical understanding of love. It challenges people to imagine what real love is according to God’s standards. Also it explains how love was lost through selfishness, the polar opposite of love. This paper was one of my favorites because it was something I wanted to share with others as well as learn more about myself. Very few people know where the word love originates from. It explores how the word was used back when the Greek language was widely used.
