Exploring the intersection of gender and sexuality within a Christian framework, the book examines the relationship between eros (human love) and agape (divine love) as central to the New Testament. It aims to articulate a Christian perspective on male/female dynamics, emphasizing the supremacy of agape over eros. Key Pauline scriptures are analyzed alongside modern thinkers like Virginia Woolf, Freud, and Irigaray, highlighting the relevance of these themes across disciplines.
