Crazy Love by Francis Chan ~ Book Review


Synopsis


GOD IS LOVE. 

Have you ever wondered if we're missing it? 

It's crazy, if you think about it. The God of the universe--the Creator of nitrogen and pine needles, galaxies and e-minor--loves us with a radical, unconditional, self-sacrificing love. And what is our typical response? We go to church, sing songs, and try not to cuss. 

Whether you've verbalized it yet or not...we all know something's wrong. 

Does something deep inside your heart long to break free from the status quo? Are you hungry for an authentic faith that addresses the problems of our world with tangible, even radical, solutions? God is calling you to a passionate love relationship with Himself. Because the answer to religious complacency isn't working harder at a list of do's and don'ts--it's falling in love with God. And once you encounter His love, as Francis describes it, you will never be the same. 

Because when you're wildly in love with someone, it changes everything.

CRAZY, RENTLESS, ALL-POWERFUL LOVE.

Review


An incredible book about God's love. It was well written, and easy to follow along. I really appreciated the way Francis Chan wrote this book- it was raw, and real. This book discusses and faces the hard questions. Following God is not easy, but its worth it.
If you want to read a book about God's amazing love, this is a great choice!

Few quotes: "Having faith often means doing what others see as crazy. Something is wrong when our lives make sense to unbelievers." "True faith means holding nothing back; it bets everything on the hope of eternity."
