Love Beyond Reason

Title: Love Beyond Reason
Author: John Ortberg
Genre: Christian Living

Love can make us do some pretty crazy things. Love can drive one to empty a bank account to purchase the girl with the big brown eyes a diamond ring. It can take a person to the operating table to give a loved one a kidney. Love for a stuffed animal or rag doll can run so deep parents have been known to drive hours back to hotel rooms, or turn upside down a house should the loved toy go missing. Over two thousand years ago, love drove one man to a cross to die for His beloved bride. Sometimes love just goes beyond all reason.

In this book, Love Beyond Reason, John Ortberg takes the reader to explore just how deep, how wide, and how long the love that our heavenly Father gives us. The book actually reads very easy and is only just over two hundred pages long. However, the simplicity of the message is not left wanting. The author mixes moving illustrations with a candid sense of humor that draws you right into the book.

It’s overwhelming to think that the one who breathed the world in existence is just waiting to flood with my heart with His love. And this pleases Him. I know there are thousands of romance books out on today’s market, but not many of them will draw you to the One who offers deep, sincere, undying love. This one will.
