Costly Love by Terryl Givens

"In the genuine practice of love, we cannot insulate ourselves from vicarious participation in and susceptibility to the emotional experience of others. Love cannot be love without pain, without vulnerability." Terryl Givens is Maxwell Senior Research Fellow at BYU. His books include studies in theology, biography and intellectual history. The New York Times has called his scholarship “provocative reading,” and he has been a commentator on PBS, CNN and NPR. Wayfare: Explorations in Faith is produced by BYUradio.
