    About this ebook

    Throughout history, God calls out to His people asking one simple question, "Do you love Me?" He offers us the most magnificent sort of love available, and wants a relationship with people who will respond with a love that mimics His passion. Christianity isn't really a boring "let's go to church and sit in a pew for an hour" sort of religion. It's a romance with the creator of the universe, a "fairy tale" about the Prince of Peace, Who laid down His life to rescue His bride from captivity to sin.

    Chapter Outline:
    Chapter 1 – Tell Me A Story
    Introduces the idea of the Bible as a love story God is writing for us and with us.

    Chapter 2 – God in the Old Testament
    Explores God’s love for His people as revealed in the Old Testament.

    Chapter 3 – A Great Mystery
    Human marriage as a model of the relationship between Jesus Christ and the Church.

    Chapter 4 – Kinsman Redeemer
    Christ’s role as Redeemer, in relation to the story of Ruth and His sacrifice to redeem us from sin.

    Chapter 5 – Falling In Love With Christ
    Christ proved His love by dying for us, and that should inspire us to love Him in return.

    Chapter 6 – Making Ready to Marry
    Practical things we can do to prepare for the Church’s marriage to Jesus Christ.

    Chapter 7 – Unending Love
    Discusses God’s love and concludes the booklet.
