The Second Greatest Commandment: Why Loving Yourself Unlocks True Love for OthersThis book reclaims the often-ignored but essential truth in Jesus's second greatest commandment: "Love your neighbor as yourself." Many Christians have been taught to pour themselves out for others while ignoring their own needs, equating self-love with pride or sin. Kwame Y Ampofo dismantles this harmful mindset by restoring the biblical foundation of self-love as necessary-not selfish. Drawing from both Old and New Testament references, this work shows how self-love enables healthier relationships and a truer expression of God's love. With practical steps, theological clarity, and compassionate tone, the book challenges guilt-based teachings and empowers believers to love from a place of wholeness rather than exhaustion. It encourages readers to embrace their worth, honor their needs, and extend grace to others-not from obligation, but from overflow
