Discover the power to embrace relationship, cultivate community and live a loving life.
Love is what holds all things together, it's what we're looking for, it's what we all need and it's what we must learn how to give.
But loving people is hard.
Our neighbours, friends, kids, spouses and even our enemies require a relentless, self-giving demonstration of love that only God can produce within us. Taking his cues from the perseverance and faithfulness portrayed in the book of Ruth, best-selling author Paul Miller sheds light on a biblical portrait of love that is sure to give us hope and transform our souls.
Here is the help we need to embrace relationship, endure rejection, cultivate community and reach out to even the most unlovable, as we discover the power to live a loving life.
