66 Ways God Loves You Book Review & Giveaway
Oh, dear friends, I want to share with you about a wonderful book I’m reading, 66 Ways God Loves You. Plus, we have a special giveaway of the book and a matching tote bag!
The author, Jennifer Rothschild, infuses 66 Ways God Loves You with beautiful wisdom and loving thoughts.
Her passion comes from her own experiences of reading the Bible.
“One profound, unavoidable, irreducible, soul-quaking effect—I feel the love of God.
I want that for you too. God deeply loves you—He loves you with an everlasting love.
So God tells you in sixty-six ways . . . in each and every book of the Bible.”
Jennifer Rothschild, 66 Ways God Loves You
Rothschild points out God’s message of love from Genesis to Revelation.
Contents
Two to three pages are devoted to each book of the Bible. The passages are scripture-infused meat, but concise enough to be read in five or ten minutes. It’s a perfect beginning or ending to your daily Bible reading.
A few of the titles are:
In Deuteronomy God Keeps His Covenant of Love to Me and to a Thousand Generations
In Daniel God Joins Me in the Fire
In Titus God Steps Into My Confusion with a Love That Saves Me
I love all the chapters, but the one shouting God’s love to me the most at this point in my life, is the chapter titled, In Joshua, God Gives Me Divine Purpose.
Personal Application
Not always, but occasionally moments do arise in the midst of homeschooling, doing laundry, and running errands, when I struggle with my life’s purpose. I mean, really. Am I fulfilling my true calling?
Rothschild reminds me,
“God loves you too much to leave you without purpose.”
She shares scriptures of God’s divine purpose for our lives—to love Him, walk with Him, obey, and serve Him.
Then, in her beautiful way of writing, Rothschild continues to encourage me,
“You have been given a magnificent purpose of living out the words of Jesus and sharing them with others. Thank God for giving you the highest purpose—knowing and loving Him and making Him known.”
This chapter on purpose moves me to repentance, and inspires me to press forward with a new motivation.

2 Thessalonians 3:5: “May the Lord direct your hearts into God's love and Christ's patience.” I experience God's love in many ways, especially when I look at my children.

When I take the time to look around and really take in the beauty around me, the colors in the sky, leaves, flowers, water, people, and animals, I know that God made it all appealing visually for our benefit. He could have made everything the same color or different shades of gray, but He didn't. That's just one way that I experience God's love.
Sally Matheny
You are right, Kymberlie. Everything God has created, is a display of His love.

LINDA C. sent this message: “I can't just say one way that I have experienced God's love. He has shown His love to me in so many ways. First of all He saved me when I was 6 years old. He has provided for me for the past 20 years since my husband died. He healed me from cancer 9 years ago and spared me when my house caught on fire. He walks with me everyday and meets my every need. Jeremiah 29:11-13 has been my verses to hold to through many trials.”
