Staff Recommendation:
I received this book for Christmas two years ago and before I could read it, my friend Sara borrowed it, then her mom read it, then her aunt devoured it; on to her cousin, her cousin's friend...and finally back to me! So, as I reluctantly dove into my first Christian fiction ever, my little world transformed into a brothel swarming, dirt road, corn farming journey through God's beautiful redemption. This is an awesome book and I wish it didn't have a last page. Redeeming Love deeply ministered to my soul. I drank deeply of God's love from every page. As in my own life, God takes something so utterly used & broken and reforms it into a most beautiful flower. You will love it. I guarantee it!
