God’s Love: Better than Unconditional
“God’s unconditional love.” Sounds nice, but is it enough? Is there more to God’s love?
Describing unconditional love as detached “blanket acceptance” and “benign affirmation,” David Powlison challenges our common assumption about the nature of God’s love. Although wonderfully accepting, divine love is also intrusive, intimate, personal, and active. Instead of simply loving us as we are, God loves us enough to change us.
Powlison acknowledges four underlying truths of unconditional love, offers biblical improvements on the idea, and urges us to see God’s love for what it really is—better than unconditional.

The Duke’s Daughter (Lachlan MacKenzie)
The Duke’s Daughter has come of age and to celebrate a grand ball has been arranged. All the eligible noblemen from far and near will be invited in order for the young woman to choose a suitable husband.
But as the final preparations take place, a beggar appears at the door and asks the Duke’s Daughter to marry him. To everyone’s surprise she agrees. The beggar leaves after promising to come back in a year’s time to claim her as his bride. Neither her father’s tears nor her friends’ pleas will persuade the young woman to marry another.
Will the beggar return? Will the Duke’s Daughter marry a beggar man? What will happen in a year’s time – will there be a marriage or a broken heart?
This is a classic story of love, but not romantic love. It is really a story of the love of Christ, written by one of last century’s preachers.

Passion and Purity: Learning to Bring Your Love Life Under Christ’s Control (Elisabeth Elliot)
Can deep passion for someone of the opposite sex be held within a pure heart? Elisabeth Elliot says “yes”, and proves it from her own experience. Perhaps no other book shows so candidly how Christ has given singles sufficient grace to walk with Him in matters of the heart and its yearnings for satisfaction with a partner. If you want to teach young people how commitment to God takes priority over even the most intense love, or your teenager says “I can’t control my feelings!”, this is the book for you.
In Passion and Purity, Elisabeth Elliot emphasizes the need to commit daily to Christ all matters of the heart and to wait upon Him. She teaches this often painful yet rewarding discipline by candidly tracing her love story with Jim Elliot as evidence that she has been there.
Through letters, diary entries, and memories, she shares the temptations, difficulties, victories, and sacrifices of two young people whose commitment to Christ took priority over their love for each other. These revealing personal glimpses, combined with relevant biblical teaching, will remind you that only by putting your human passion and desire through His fire can God purify your love.

Love or Die: Christ’s Wake-Up Call to the Church (Alexander Strauch)
In this challenging exposition of Revelation 2:2-6, Strauch examines this alarming rebuke of Jesus Christ to his church. Part I of the book reminds us that “an individual or a church can teach sound doctrine, be faithful to the gospel, be morally upright and hard-working, and yet be lacking love and therefore, be displeasing to Christ.” Love can grow cold while outward religious performance appears acceptable–even praiseworthy.

Side by Side: Walking with Others in Wisdom and Love (Ed Welch)
Everyone needs help from time to time, especially in the midst of painful circumstances and difficult trials. In this short book, a highly respected biblical counselor and successful author offers practical guidance for all Christians—pastors and laypeople alike—who want to develop their “helping skills” when it comes to walking alongside hurting people.
Friends are the best helpers, and this book is grounded in that idea. Welch shows believers that most of us are already equipped to bear one another’s burdens through gentle words of wisdom and kind acts of love. God uses ordinary relationships and conversations between ordinary Christians in your lives, more than that of “professionals.” Using nothing more spectacular or exceptional than each other, God works extraordinary miracles in our lives.
