A CRAZY KIND OF LOVE

Plan to read this book again prior to our 49th anniversary. The book was a gift from my wife on our 41st anniversary. Francis Chan is the real deal. 

“Our greatest fear should not be of failure but of succeeding at things in life that don't really matter.” 

“He wants all or nothing. The thought of a person calling himself a 'Christian' without being a devoted follower of Christ is absurd.” 

“I believe He wants us to love others so much that we go to extremes to help them.” 

“Something is wrong when our lives make sense to unbelievers.” 

“Lukewarm people don't really want to be saved from their sin; they want only to be saved from the penalty of their sin.” 

“God's definition of what matters is pretty straightforward. He measures our lives by how we love.” 

“But God doesn't call us to be comfortable. He calls us to trust Him so completely that we are unafraid to put ourselves in situations where we will be in trouble if He doesn't come through.”
