Based on Kurt Bennett's popular-ish blog God Running, Love Like Jesus begins with the story of how after a life of regular church attendance and Bible study, Bennett was challenged by a pastor to study Jesus. That led to an obsessive seven-year deep dive. After pouring over Jesus' every interaction with another human being, he realized he was doing a much better job of studying Jesus' words than he was following Jesus' words and example. The honest and fearless revelations of Bennett's own moral failures affirm he wrote this book for himself as much as for others. Love Like Jesus examines a variety of stories, examples, and research, including: -Specific examples of how Jesus communicated God's love to others. -How Jesus demonstrated all five of Gary Chapman's love languages (and how you can too). -The story of how Billy Graham extended Christ's extraordinary love and grace toward a man who misrepresented Jesus to millions. -How to respond to critics the way Jesus did. -How to love unlovable people the way Jesus did. -How to survive a life of loving like Jesus (or how not to become a Christian doormat). -How Jesus didn't love everyone the same (and why you shouldn't either). -How Jesus guarded his heart by taking care of himself--he even napped--and why you should do the same.-How Jesus loved his betrayer Judas, even to the very end. With genuine unfiltered honesty, Love Like Jesus, shows you how to live a life according to God's definition of success: A life of loving God well, and loving the people around you well too. A life of loving like Jesus.

You will, no doubt, have been taught from a young age that you should love God and others before yourself. In truth, this doctrine enslaves us and can have long-lasting, detrimental effects. In Yourself First, Others Second and God Last, Sidney Strachan suggests that God's will, at its core, is for us all to prosper and live in good health. It is not blasphemous to love ourselves first and when we do, the success we crave will follow. Yourself First offers new insight into breaking the mindset and ideologies that are holding us back and preventing us from achieving our goals. The author draws on personal experience and includes stories of reflection to encourage readers to look past the teachings of religion and examine God's will in a new, more productive light. Find out how to overcome self-hatred, false religious and social programming and achieve your full potential, for only when you love yourself, will your love for others and God flow with ease. This ground-breaking new book challenges us to reflect on who we truly are, why we're stuck in unfavourable situations, where to find the Kingdom and how to apply our newfound knowledge to break free from our restraints. During an era when there is so much hatred and misinterpretation in the world, Yourself First offers a life-changing alternative to age-old doctrines.

***An Act of God (previously published as The Last Testament: A Memoir) is now a major Broadway show starring Jim Parsons (The Big Bang Theory) and directed by Joe Mantello (Wicked)*** Over the course of his long and distinguished career, God has literally seen it all. And not just seen. In fact, the multitalented deity has played a pivotal role in many major events, including the Creation of the universe, the entirety of world history, and the successful transitioning of American Idol into the post–Simon Cowell era. Sometimes preachy, sometimes holier-than-thou, but always lively, An Act of God is the ultimate celebrity autobiography.
