Agape

Thank you fantastic

Thanks for this resource. I will be adapting this for my year 7 classes but you have collected together the most useful quotations.

this is a good introduction to the central concept of love in the Gospels..</p> It could be expanded to include more texts such as 'God is Love'. What would make it an even stronger resource would be to have some AT2 questions to follow this. .</p> Where do we see love in the world - and the need for it? .</p> Is charity love in action? Give arguments both for and against this. .</p> What is your own experience of real love, forgiveness, unconditional acceptance etc. - and what is your experience of the opposite?.</p> Why may people make an effort to be loving and forgiving? What may make people behave in an unloving way? .</p> think of bullies. when have you been bullied and when have you acted in a bullying way - and what made you do that? (most people have been bullies - and most people have suffered from bullying.).</p> Where do you see the need for this?.</p> How could we best make real unconditional love stronger in our class, school, family, community - etc.</p> What injustices and fears are you aware of that may be preventing the growth of agape - unconditional love? </p> There are endless such questions that you might discuss here.
