Love as a Verb (book)

"Love as a Verb," by Beverly Daniel Tatum, emphasizes that love is fundamentally an active process, demonstrated through actions rather than just feelings or words. It explores how love involves ongoing effort, commitment, and intentionality—like listening, understanding, and caring for others. The book highlights that love requires consistent practice and resilience, especially in complex relationships and social contexts. By framing love as a verb, it encourages us to embody love through actions that foster connection, growth, and trust, making it a dynamic, lived experience rather than a passive emotion.
