81: Love & Respect?

On today's podcast, Ashley unpacks Emmerson Eggerich's book "Love & Respect: The Love She Most Desires and the Respect He Desperately Needs." She deconstructs the theology around Eggerichs' work and offers up a different definition of love inspired by Cater Heyward's book "Touching Our Strength: The Erotic as Power and the Love of God." In Heyward's book, she defines love as being rooted in mutual respect and discovery. Ashley offers Heyward's definition of love as a healthy alternative to Eggerich's patriarchal theology.
