Book Review: Love Changes Everything by Micah Berteau

Love Changes Everything by Micah Berteau was not really my cup of tea. I honestly had a hard time trying to focus on what he was saying in the book so I couldn't finish the entire book. I was concerned with some of the Bible translations he uses throughout and quotes from  questionable popular personalities.

Something I did appreciate about his book is in Chapter 5- "When Your Past Becomes Your Present"  he says on page 63 -64 " Your Past in not better than where God is trying to take you. Your Present questions will not be answered by returning to what God brought you out of"  He tells us not to let your past define you.
Anyway I just couldn't get into this book though I  tried really hard.
I received a copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for my honest review.

How it Went

First of all, thank you to those who shared their own stories of reaching out to someone who has been unkind.

So my Tim and I ministered to this lady and her family and it didn't go too bad. Her family expressed appreciation for reaching out to them during their difficult situation and she actually said thank you to me as we were walking out the door. She was busy with an elderly family member so she couldn't actually talk to me but saying thank you is a start. I'm going to continue to be nice to her and see how this will all work. I don't think it's a coincidence that our pastor is teaching on relationships with people in our lives.
Talk about a sermon that made me squirm!
