"Crazy Love"
Francis Chan
This book is a real challenge to trust God, take Jesus at his word and live life according to his commands, not according to how we feel or how comfortable we are. I appreciate and agree with most of what he has to say, although I take exception to his repeated insistence that God is "in love" with us. His is a deep an unfathomable love, but to equate it to passion between a man and a woman seems on the border of sacrilege. That being said, his challenge is well heard, and I think it has made a difference in many lives and churches. The chapter recounting martyrs and zealous Christians' experiences has especial impact.
