Hard to Love: A guide to loving yourself, loving God, and loving others.

By Nikki Appleton

Is there someone in your life who is hard to love? Maybe it's someone you work with. Maybe it's yourself. Maybe it's God. Either way, the reality is that love is hard. But the Bible calls us to do it: to love. So, no matter what challenges come our way, we need to learn how to show authentic love to ourselves, to God and to others. It won't always be easy, but it will always be worth it. In Hard to Love, author Nikki Appleton explores all aspects of love through the lens of the commandments in the Bible: to love God and to love your neighbor as yourself. Through Bible stories, scripture, personal experience, and reflection questions, she demonstrates that real love places God at the center of it. After all, God is love. As we learn to love ourselves, love God, and love others-including our enemies-it is important to keep grounded in our faith, ask God for strength and guidance, and continually lay down our pride.
