Crazy Love: the cure for chronic churchitis
Reading: Crazy Love: Over whelmed by a Relentless God, by Francis Chan

Let's use the blog as an outlet to discuss your ideas on the concept of Crazy Love, as well has a sounding board to share how God is speaking to you during this time of prayer and fasting.
Also feel free to ask questions, share recipes, or even testimonies to God's wonderful power.

In chapter three, Francis Chan says, "Most of us, to some degree, have a difficult understanding, believing, or accepting God's absolute and unlimited love for us." Do you agree? If so, why do you think most people struggle with accepting God's unlimited love?

Yes I agree! I have struggled and still do at times with accepting, understanding, and believing Gods absolute love for me. Chan is right Gods love is crazy, for someone so perfect to love someone full of sin and so undeserving is amazing. I think we have difficulty accepting it because we possibly don't love ourselves, or believe that we deserve to be loved especially by a God that is perfect. Gods love is not meant to be understood in our analytical mind but accepted in our hearts and soul. The message on Sunday was on point in saying that we should confess daily and often gods love for us, by saying, I may have a lot going on but God still loves me (for example).
