Let me begin by introducing one of my personal heroes, CS
Lewis. There are few authors that are really awesome. CS Lewis is one of them.
I am frequently saddened by the fact that he is no longer on this earth because
I can’t meet him and he isn’t writing any more books. He was born in England, somewhere. He was born
in a Christian? home, but became an atheist through his school years. Then, he
went to Oxford and realized that Jesus is awesome. For more on this, read
another book of his entitled “Surprised by Joy.” (Fun fact! CS Lewis was
buddies with JR Tolkien at Oxford)
His book The Four Loves introduces different kinds of love
one at a time and contrasts them with other loves, and then explores both the
ideal states of these loves and the ways they can be twisted. He mentions how
each kind could become a sort of false god, and thus a demon, in our lives. I
really encourage you all to read the book as it will be much more thorough and
awesome than my attempt to summarize.
