Customer Reviews

See how God sees you...

I have bought at least 20 copies of this book in the past 5 years. I can never usually keep them, because I am always running into people who want a copy too. This book is in my top 3 favorite life changing books ever. If you really want to get a grasp at how God loves you in a way that isn't talked about much....this book is for you! You won't be able to put it down!

I'm not a typical reader, but this is a GREAT BOOK.

This book was referred to me by an encouraging friend. I am a college student and my upbringing stems from a very spiritual background. As a student away from my family, my lifestyle isn't always modeled after my upbringing. I recommend this book to everyone, regardless of your background. The author uses realistic situations that help you understand the daily walk with God's love. The author is very down-to-earth, understanding, sarcastic, and captivating enough to keep me reading until the very last chapter. The chapters are short, always related to a real-life situations, and always end with a significant message. If you're looking for a book to put your walk with God into perspective, you've found it! I encourage anyone to read Lover of my Soul.

The Heart of the Gospel

This book gets at the heart of the gospel better than all the others. Writings on God's grace which we have seen alot of - are secondary to this - the real heart of the matter. God's love -intimate, powerful, expansive and expensive, the only real power to change our lives.

Lover of My Soul, Alan D. Wright

Absolutely one of the best books I've read. I cannot keep a copy in my collection because I'm always giving them away. Fabulous words of encouragement and wisdom to Christians reminding us of how much God loves us and desires to be the true LOVER OF OUR SOUL! A must read for believers (and non-believers alike)! Will definitely minister to those who know Christ (and will encourage those who don't to dig deeper)! God bless you all!

the single best book i read in 1999

On sale at a Christian book store that was going out of business, I picked up this book simply because I liked the title. "Delighting In God's Passionate Love" had never crossed my mind and I was curious.I boarded a southbound plane for a mini retreat in the warmth of Florida. Before the plane reached my destination I had read three fourths of the book and felt as if I had been alone with God. All while sitting in the coach section of a crowded plane.This book reminds you of your primary love relationship. It uses the metaphor of the romance of a marriage to describe our relationship with our Holy Suitor who woos us to His heart irresistibly. I had no idea until reading this just how much I am loved. It was a wonderful renewal of my love for my Divine Husband. I've given away a dozen copies of this book and everyone agrees that it has an incredible impact. It is simple, the chapters are short, and yet the concepts profound. This is a book I will give away for years to come.
