Publisher Description
God is love.
Crazy, relentless, all-powerful love.
Revised and updated edition of the best-seller, now with a new preface and a bonus chapter.
Have you ever wondered if we’re missing it?
It’s crazy, if you think about it. The God of the universe — the Creator of nitrogen and pine needles, galaxies and E-minor — loves us with a radical, unconditional, self-sacrificing love. And what is our typical response? We go to church, sing songs, and try not to cuss.
Whether you’ve verbalized it yet or not… we all know something’s wrong.
Does something deep inside your heart long to break free from the status quo? Are you hungry for an authentic faith that addresses the problems of our world with tangible, even radical, solutions? God is calling you to a passionate love relationship with Himself. Because the answer to religious complacency isn’t working harder at a list of do’s and don’ts — it’s falling in love with God. And once you encounter His love, as Francis describes it, you will never be the same.
Because when you’re wildly in love with someone, it changes everything.

"I read this book a few months ago and it really convicted me. Helped me gain a better understanding of my relationship with Christ and has caused me to take less of perspective on gaining treasures here on earth and focusing more on my relationship with the Lord and how he longs to spend time with us but gives us the choice to choose to have that relationship or not. It's a wonderful read and it'll challenge you to give more of your time, talents and treasures all the while teaching you not where you are but where you need to be. Awesomely amazing book."

" I really love Francis Chan, but had to let this go. In the beginning I was convicted, but towards the end I just felt guilty. "
— Alison, 2/17/2014 -
" Simple, easy read--some good points. A good reminder of how small we are and how very big God is. Call me old, but I don't care to be referred to his website to watch a video, when I'm reading a book. Annoying--but I know that's a milennial thing. "
— Tracie, 2/8/2014 -
" Oh my soul . . . "
— Paul, 2/1/2014 -
" This describes the Love we have when we get in the Kingdom and need reminding of as we mature in Christ! Great Book, I have read three times now and it just keeps getting better! "
— Paul, 1/26/2014 -
" This book is AMAZING! Life changing and heart empowering. God is so wondrous it astounds me. Your walk in the faith will never be the same. This book should be read monthly as a reminder to recheck our focus. LOVED it!!!! "
— Helaina, 1/23/2014 -
" This book wasn't as great as I thought it was going to be. It had a lot of hype for being so light on new concepts or really deep thinking. It's a great book for a new believer, but for the part of you that craves steak rather than a glass of milk, I'd pass on this one. "
— Drew, 1/18/2014 -
" Simply incredible...if you are content in your Christianity you need to read this book... If you are not content in your Christianity you need to read this book... "
— Bill, 1/14/2014 -
" This book really turned my world upside down.the person I am today started with this book. "
— Brigitteray, 1/9/2014 -
" I love Chan's honesty, and the way he gets to the point. His words are convicting, yet said from his heart. I will read more of his books. "
— Cindi, 1/1/2014 -
" Great read that presented a very big challenge to any Christian. Anyone wanting to improve their life and relationship with God and others should definitely read this book. "
— Jodee, 11/25/2013 -
" AMAZING, must-read book. Francis Chan is a very talent writer and speaker. I have seen his many times. He's very passionate and vulnerable about what he teaches. "
— Alexa, 11/10/2013 -
" The most wonderful kick in the face you'll ever get. Chan tells it like it is -- God's love is more than we ever imagined it to be. Read this, and let the reality and implications of that love soak into your life and heart. "
— Jaimie, 9/9/2013 -
" This is one of those "wow" books that causes you to think. It's never too late!! "
— Olivia, 8/13/2013 -
" A refreshing book for any person who calls him/herself a Christian. Pastor Chan is not afraid to talk straightforward about God's unmeasurable love and the difference that it should make in our lives. This is definitely one of the books that I will read more than once. "
— Anderson, 7/21/2013 -
" Absolutely fantastic! If this book doesn't challenge you in your walk with God, you have no pulse! "
— Susan, 6/23/2013 -

" I absolutely loved it! This book has seriously changed the way I view people and the way I live now. Everyone needs to read this book. "
— Ariel, 3/22/2013 -
" One of my favorite, for sure. All of Chan's works have been impressive, turning my focus inward into my own personal qualms, commitments, and desires. "
— Sarah, 1/17/2013 -
" Meh. Maybe it just wasn't where I'm at right now. "
— Jana, 7/2/2012 -

— Richellelee, 5/4/2011 -
" Wow. Makes you evaluate your life. Am I truly living for God? Am I living like Christ? Am I being lead by the Holy Spirit? Am I loving my neighbor as myself? Am I loving God with all my heart, soul, and mind? I should be. Not out of duty, but out of love and service to my Creator. Crazy love. "
— Shawna, 5/1/2011 -
" Reading it and really like it! Recommended by my son! "
— Valerie, 4/30/2011 -

— Rebecca, 4/28/2011 -
" A good, simple devotional. The scale remains exclusively emotional, however. "
— Charles, 4/24/2011 -
" Jesus is great. His agape is amazing. "
