Crazy Love: Overwhelmed by a Relentless God
By Francis Chan
Wow. Few books have messed up my whole perspective on life and Christianity as much as this one. Starting with the awesomness of God’s love for us, Francis Chan then makes a very convicting, challenging assay of how we, as Christians, should be living and loving. From there he presents the gospel message and how it is relevant and reassuring to Christians. The last section of the book presents stories of Christians from throughout the world and history who have really lived out the right kind of love. He ends with a challenge to Christians to love others as if they were Christ. This book is friendly in tone, Biblical in foundation, broad-reaching in scope, and unequivocally confrontational in dealing with our personal lack of love.
