God's Love is Crazy - What About Yours?

Given how much we ignore Him; how much we misunderstand Him, how much we disobey Him, how much we dishonor Him, how much we mistreat His children, our brothers and sisters, how much we substitute mere ritual for a quality relationship with Him, how much we give our passions to lesser, often destructive things instead of embracing His passions....in spite of all this... "God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us." (Rom 5:8) From an earthly point of view, there's one word for this...CRAZY. Still, I thank my Father that His love for me is crazy! As Francis Chan reminds us, "shouldn't our love for Him be CRAZY, too!? Here is a great intro. to his book, "Crazy Love" (and there is a small group study that goes with it, too.) Click on video...



Here is the link for the book and DVD study. (FBC folks...I've already ordered it!)
