Summary

The runaway New York Times best seller!

Can a simple concept shift your entire world? Bob certainly thinks so. When it comes to loving your neighbors, rather than focusing on having the "right answers" or checking the "right boxes", what if you decide to simply do love? To shamelessly show love and grace to those around you? What would that look like?

It might look like spending 16 days in the Pacific Ocean with five guys and a crate of canned meat. It might look like taking your kids on a world tour to eat ice cream with heads of state. It might look like taking a road trip with a stressed-out college student—even though you just got married a few days before.

In Love Does, Bob shows you:

  • how to live a fully engaged life;
  • how to stop putting things off until “next time” and instead find your place of imagination, whimsy, and wonder today;
  • that God usually chooses ordinary people to get things done.

When love does, life gets interesting. Light and fun, unique and profound, the lessons drawn from Bob's life and attitude in this collection of stories just might inspire you to be secretly incredible, too. If you love Love Does, don’t forget to check out Everybody, Always and Dream Big for more of Bob’s delightful and inspiring stories!

Wow, life changing moments!

I recommend to all ages, a fantastic audiobook. If you want to do a bit of soul searching, rethinking your attitude, understanding what ‘love’ can really consist of than look no further. Bob gives lots of belly laughing accounts of his life which although sometimes beyond what I could imagine doing, are an inspiration to get up and make those changes in your own life.
No homework needed, just listen and go forth!
Loved it and hoping to buy a copy for all my friends this Christmas!!

Thought and soul provoking

This book encourages the reader to think outside the box. It is challenging and inspiring. I like to say, listen or read if you dare. If you're in a rut and need a push!
Having listened to the author at Cherish Women's Conference UK, and read the, I'm eager to life better.

Very inspirational book

this book left me with a challenge and an inspiration: am I merely a Bible student or am I a Bible doer. Do I just talk love or do I love?
