"Agape doesn't love somebody because they're worthy. Agape……" — Rob Bell
"Agape doesn't love somebody because they're worthy. Agape makes them worthy by the strength and power of its love. Agape doesn't love somebody because they're beautiful. Agape loves in such a way that it makes them beautiful."
