Love is supposed to be safe.

Measured. Manageable. Mutually beneficial.

But what if it isn’t?

What if real love, love as Jesus taught it, demands far more than kindness, intention, or good behavior?

In Love Looks Like Murder, KC Cupp explores the unsettling truth at the heart of Christianity: you cannot love as God loves while clinging to the instincts of self-preservation, fear, and control that shape the world around us. From loving neighbors and enemies to releasing power, status, and security, this book reveals why love and the cross are inseparable, and why divided allegiance makes real love impossible.

This is not a call to be nicer.

This is not a guide to moral self-improvement.

This is not an invitation to withdraw from the world.

It is an invitation to die to what cannot last, so love can finally live.

Because when love demands everything, nothing remains unchanged.
