through love
Families united through love. My understanding is that is going to teach them how to unite their families with the use of love, hence "through" I think would be more appropriate. Or you could also say "Families united through the power of love"

affective
My suggestion => "Affective family bonding".
"Affective means influenced by emotions or arousing emotions. It is roughly synonymous with emotional, and used mainly in psychology, where affective disorders are conditions characterized by emotional problems or mood disturbances, though it does appear occasionally outside psychology."

If it is "not at all natural-sounding Engliish", why is it used as a title of the following lyrics??? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ru8BB_wXmhs
I agree, the title is just an example of how the phrase is used...let's not forget-the language is dynamic
