Now a" New York Times "Bestseller
As a college student he spent 16 days in the Pacific Ocean with
five guys and a crate of canned meat. As a father he took his kids
on a world tour to eat ice cream with heads of state. He made
friends in Uganda, and they liked him so much he became the Ugandan
consul. He pursued his wife for three years before she agreed to
date him. His grades weren't good enough to get into law school, so
he sat on a bench outside the Dean's office for seven days until
they finally let him enroll.
Bob Goff has become something of a legend, and his friends
consider him the world's best-kept secret. Those same friends have
long insisted he write a book. What follows are paradigm shifts,
musings, and stories from one of the world's most delightfully
engaging and winsome people. What fuels his impact? Love. But it's
not the kind of love that stops at thoughts and feelings. Bob's
love takes action. Bob believes "Love Does."
When "Love Does," life gets interesting. Each day turns into a
hilarious, whimsical, meaningful chance that makes faith simple and
real. Each chapter is a story that forms a book, a life. And this
is one life you don't want to miss.
Light and fun, unique and profound, the lessons drawn from Bob's
life and attitude just might inspire you to be secretly incredible,
too.

"There are some nasty rumors out there about treasure. Mostly
that's it's buried and needs discovering. Or has to be mined. Or
can only be located with a map and a big X. Not so, says the life
of Bob Goff. Living from the center of your heart doesn't have to
be complicated or elusive. Love just wakes up in the morning and
gets busy loving. The treasure is sitting right there next to the
pancakes. About 5 pages in, I knew my life and I were gonna have
words." --Nicole Nordeman, Mother and Musician
