2 Kings...hit a rough patch.  Lots of good things in this book...and I do believe that love is referred to indirectly.  So, here is a good one, that doesn't mention love by name, but implies it, especially when you consider the command from Deuteronomy (above).

Acts...huh.  I did not see this coming.  No mention of the word love in Acts.  What does this teach me about mission?  I do know that the Holy Spirit is very present in the book of Acts, and that love is one of the fruits of the Holy Spirit, so I can guess that like other books, even though it is not mentioned, love is present.
