what is agape?
Agape is an unmerited, undeserved, freely given love that washes over all of us, whether we are are aware of it or not. Agape is one of the Greek words for defining love, the others being eros (erotic love) and philia (brotherly or familial love). Something certainly gets lost in translation with agape and I find that no English word or words will do to explain agape.
