A primer on what agape love looks like in various world religions. What could be a esoteric rabbit-hole of a subject is presented in a clear and logical manner. A surprisingly easy and worthwhile read.
Great book. No matter where you are in life, it has some nuggets of advice for everyone. It doesn't focus on a specific religion, but instead draws stories/lessons from everything.
Templeton made a load of money, but not as a writer. This isn't about money - it's about spirituality. Loon Book.
