Called 2 Love Like Jesus

by The Great Commandment Network

Overview

Jesus’ call is for love to be the identifying mark.  
A simple command but perhaps one of the toughest to follow. This Christ-like love is to be the essence of who we are and what we demonstrate to others.
 
Called 2 Love Like Jesus is an anthology of devotions designed to help you live out this kind of love. Each devotion includes an inspiring meditation from notable spiritual leaders like Mark Batterson, Gary Chapman, Dallas Willard, Joni Eareckson Tada, Tony Evans, Francis Chan, Les Parrot, Gary Smalley, and Sammy Rodriguez. Scriptures and interactive questions encourage personal reflection and life application.
 
Embrace God’s command to love and begin a lifestyle of living and loving like Jesus.
