God's Love Language: Why Do Bad Things Happen to Good People (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781630509385)

I started a business in my retirement with the intention of having something to do and to generate disposable income to help others. My feelings were that because the Bible continuously tells us to help the less fortunate that the business had to succeed. Not only did the business not succeed the failure was monumental costing me my retirement nest egg. That resulted in a two and a half year knock down drag out fight with God. I could not understand how God could let this happen when I was trying to help the less fortunate and not only did he let me down he let down everyone that would have been helped if the business succeeded.

The final battle ended with God, how can you say that you are a loving God. I would never treat someone that I love the way you have treated me.
That statement started a thought pattern about what exactly is God's love language and how is it expressed.

This book is the culmination of that thought pattern. I take you everyplace I was when I was in the tunnel. All the places that severe disappointment with God will take us, how we get there and how we get out.

Finally, in the last chapter we take a deep dive into what exactly is God's love language and how that translates into our lives. I can pretty much guarantee you that there are things in that chapter that you never thought of in the same sentence with God's love. I promise you that those things will give you a much better understanding of God and his love language.
