Though it is “probably impossible” to love any human being too much, we must, says Lewis, make sure we do not “love him too much in proportion to our love for God.” As Lewis notes, it is always “the smallness of our love for God, not the greatness of our love for man that constitutes the inordinacy.” INTRODUCTION The Four Loves is Lewis’s look at some of the loves described in Greek thought: familial or affectionate love (storge) friendship (philia) romantic love (eros) and spiritual love (agape) in the light of Christian commentary on ordinate loves.
