description: What does it mean to love God? Charles Colson's answers are both surprising and inspiring. Loving God, Colson says, does not mean what you may think. The answers spring from the deep traditions of the Christian faith, presented in this groundbreaking book amid a tapestry of richly textured tales and compelling interlocutions. Colson's brave new call to love God takes us on a fascinating journey from a Soviet gulag to an Italian estate, from Augustine to Mother Teresa, from an underworld kingpin to an American POW, from the myths behind the 'born again' movement to the pat answers of Christian pop culture. Here, Colson helps us rediscover our religious heritage -- and our own hearts. Loving God will force you to think, to feel, to question. It presents a view of loving God that could alter the makeup of the church itself. It is tough stuff from a Christian whose love for God knows no compromise.
