In a rich yet accessible style reminiscent of C. S. Lewis and G. K. Chesterton, Bauerschmidt breathes life back into that claim, drawing from Scripture, great Christian and non-Christian writers of the past, and his own lived experience to show just how countercultural and subversive Christianity is actually meant to be. Eschewing the abstract and dogmatic in favor of the relational and inviting, he offers something for everyone, from lifelong churchgoers and students of religion to the growing population of \"nones\" among younger generations who are increasingly seeking spiritual fulfillment outside of institutional Christianity. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e With further reading suggestions (both scriptural and nonscriptural) at the end of each chapter, \u003ci\u003eThe Love That Is God \u003c\/i\u003eis the perfect starting point of a spiritual journey into deeper relationship with God. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eMichael Ramsey Prize \u003c\/b\u003e(2023) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Frederick Christian Bauerschmidt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0802877958\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780802877956\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e William B.
