Staggering amounts of manpower and money are devoted each year to discovering, understanding, and harnessing the forces of nature. Almost everyone agrees, however, that one of the greatest forces on earth is love. Should churches finance research into this elemental force? Should schools offer courses for credit, with homework, examinations, and grades? The real wealth of a nation does not come from mineral resources, but from what lies in the minds and hearts of its people . . . This love force can be harnessed if we listen to our hearts and minds, and follow its laws of life that lead to a joyous existence.
