Back Cover copy
Embrace the Unfailing, Eternal Love of God and Transform the Way You Live!

"It is hard, noted William Blake, to bear the beams of God's love. We must learn to bear them. What we long to know is that we are loved. To be more specific, we hunger to know that we are accepted as we are, forgiven for all we have done, and cared for by a gracious, loving God. When we know this we walk away well."--from Embracing the Love of God

"James Bryan Smith speaks passionately of this 'furious love of God.' In a hundred different ways he whispers to us: 'You are loved!' 'You are accepted!' 'You are under the forgiving mercy and tender care of God!'...Nothing can touch us more profoundly than the experience of God's loving heart."--Richard Foster, from the foreword.
