Thomas Oord, whose Defining Love I briefly and sharply criticized here yesterday, writes to tell me that his forthcoming book will fill in some of the gaps I complained about in his book. He writes,
“You may like to know that the book was published in the same month and year as my other book, The Nature of Love: A Theology . The books were meant to be read together.

You still may not like what I write, but you’ll understand my theology much better after reading the other book.”
