Publisher Description

Imagine a stormy day at sea: your ship yielding to a relentless wind, pummeled by crashing waves, subject to the awesome force of nature. A force that is both fierce and majestic. A power that is nothing short of furious. Such is God's intense love for His children. // The Furious Longing of God is the latest tour de force from beloved author and ragamuffin, Brennan Manning. Hold on tight as you discover the most powerful force in the universe: God's furious longing for you. There is nowhere God won't go to find us. No country too distant. No terrain too treacherous. No risk too great. It is a Father's search for His lost son, His lost daughter. And there are no boundaries to where His love will take Him in order to find us, embrace us, and carry us home!

"This is the first book by Brennan Manning I've read, and he is such a simply beautiful gift. The book is not long, it is not filled with haunting, romantic language; it is simply, staggeringly, hauntingly true. The theme, found in the title, resonates that God's love for each of us rages in its ferocity like a storm at sea, and we have the option of hiding in what is known and familiar, or thrusting ourselves fully into the raging, cleansing, extravagant love of God."

    " Too much emphasis on love, love is not the only God's attribute, and some people might interpret what the author talks about in a very wrong way. So I wish Brennan could address the downturns of what he discusses. However, it still encourages a lot and helps to remember how God is enough. "

    " The scariest part of this book was how difficult I found it to believe. This perhaps says more of my current state that Manning's writing. As I finished, I felt like a little girl singing "Jesus Loves Me," alternating between yearning and defiance. Jesus loves me? Jesus loves me! "
