Love has always been the need.

Jesus has always been the answer.

"The world is hurting for love," writes pastor and Bible teacher Charles Stanley. "Because God is infinite and full of compassion, He heard our cries and responded in the form of a perfect gift, Jesus."

Consider this simple truth: all the wonderful attributes of God would be meaningless unless God was also a "giver." He loves the world, and the evidence of that love is that he "gave" His Son. From this simple but profound premise, Dr. Stanley unfolds the riches of the giver and the glories of the gift. Stanley explores the many dimensions of God's generous nature, first in His character, then in the revelation of Himself through His Son, and finally in the impact of His magnificent gift.

Written in a warm, daily devotional format, "A Gift of Love" will cause the height and depth of God's love to shine in your heart.
