Three Types of Love?

I am trying to catch up on some reading and prepare a workshop for the Northwest Texas/New Mexico Roundup in August. So I am currently reading THE UNGUIDE TO DATING by Camerin Courtney and Todd Hertz.



Todd talks about hearing a great speaker (he doesn't say who) say that there are three kinds of love. The first is LOVE BECAUSE - we love someone because they look or act a certain way or because they make us feel a certain way. The second type of love is LOVE IF. This includes the loving someone if they are willing to change the way we want them to or if they see things the same way we do.



The third type of love is LOVE PERIOD. This is God's love. His love isn't because or if anything.

I know that this is the love that I am looking for.



What do you think?

I agree -- the first one is what I experience. I doubt anyone can love like God loves.
