The way that men and women love each other is not identical -- and this is not a problem.  Or, rather, it should not be seen as a problem.

Whether romantic or platonic, friendships between men and women are not symmetrical.  They are, in fact, complementary.  Men and women give -- and need -- different things in a relationship for it to be fulfilling to them.

Let's explore this a bit today.

2 Samuel 1:26 KJV
I am distressed for thee, my brother Jonathan: very pleasant hast thou been unto me: thy love to me was wonderful, passing the love of women.

We also recommend that you check out the True Wisdom podcast which I co-host with Robert Baker -- a different format for Bible Study.
