Live Like You're Loved: Living in the Freedom and Immediacy of God's Love

by Cecil Taylor

Overview

Despite Christianity's message about who we are and what has been done for us, guilt, shame, and self-loathing can weigh us down. This book emphasizes four Biblical truths: You are loved, forgiven, sent, and eternal. Cecil Taylor walks through their scriptural basis, then illustrates a life lived in each truth.

More people than you might expect live their lives thinking they are worthless and not good enough for God. This book addresses a "pandemic" of not accepting that God can love and forgive us. For those who feel this way, the topics in this book will drive them in a new direction. The goal is to transform our lives as we trust in God's intention for us, deepening our relationships with God and with others.

Editorial Reviews

Live Like You're Loved is a great guide to start living. It begins with spiritual truths like you are loved, you are forgiven, you are sent, and you are eternal. These truths are supported by scripture. What I like most about the book are the practical examples Cecil gives to show that these truths are true. We live in a world where people doubt the truth, ignore the truth, and don't know the truth. Beginning the book on what we know to be true helps makes this a solid exploration of how to start living. This book also gives you simple steps for living. These four steps are easy and practical to follow. What I found helpful is if one step, you don't quite master, then go back to try it again. No battle is won forever, so using this book as a reference guide makes sense.

I love when an author bares his soul. Cecil shows he has not always gotten it right. As my mother used to say, "some lessons are store-bought." Cecil has invested, and his investment has grown. This is why you can trust his truth and the truth.

This book will bless you because it is well-written, thought-provoking, and well-done. - Rick Hightower, author of 26.2 Miles to Grace: How my life was saved by Miracles, Marriage, and Marathons.

Live Like You are Loved has been described by some as "a quick read." However, I found the content to be so rich that I wanted to stop reading after each small bit to allow time for reflection and application. Since the seed for this book was a weekly video study, it makes sense that one would pause to reflect on one concept before moving on to the next.

Cecil uses both scripture and experience to explain the truth of God's love for us - for me and for you - in such a way that "knowing love" moves from intellectual concept to spiritual experience. From head to heart. This alone should be savored and absorbed.

The journey into living like you are loved doesn't end with understanding God's love. Cecil moves God's love into the reality of our daily lives through practical steps for living in - basking in - the love of God.

Cecil's SAIL steps prompt the reader to make a genuine investment of mind, heart, body, and time, so that each individual step becomes part of a meaningful spiritual journey.- Rev. Liz Moen (ret.)
