When asked by His disciples for a sign of the end of the age, Jesus responded by saying that “the love of most will grow cold.”  Researchers have proclaimed the current generation of millennials, marked by its vaunted independence and rising numbers of “rugged individuals,” as the most lonely, miserable and depressed generation in recorded history.  It would appear that what once held people together in close-knit relationships of love has been shattered and displaced.  With divorce rates more than doubling, marriage rates plummeting, out-of-wedlock births increasing by nine times since 1950, suicide rates rising and violent crime up nearly 90 percent, many find themselves asking, “What’s the problem with love?”  This book attempts to answer that question by briefly examining the failure of love in recent history along with its cataclysmic effects and why, in spite of these, people continue to find themselves tragically clinging to it as the only hope for humanity.  Could some glimmer of hope remain for those who would be open to the re-discovery of a different and more radical form of love—a love which might once again serve as that center around which all things hold together?
