God Is Love/Dues Caritas Est: Encyclical Letter of the Supreme Pontiff Benedict XVI softcover

Plot

Pope Benedict's first encyclical seeks to show the place of love in the life of the Church, referencing her charitable activity and works of justice as expressions of love. Examining the natures of various kinds of love--human, divine, eros, friendship, and charity--he inspirationally writes that we were made for love by the God who is love, the God who became one of us out of love, and urges us to purify the love which has been abused in the modern world.
