Summary: Absolutely Beautiful! A Must-Have for the Romantic at Heart
Review: A Father and child relationship is not the only way God relates to us-- He is so much more! This wonderful book takes the reader on a journey to discover how our God can romance us into a love relationship with Him that will see us through the joys and sorrows of our lives. Anyone who sees it as "sexual" has sadly missed the beautiful, romantic message of this book. It is written by women and geared mostly toward women, both married and single. One of the most touching parts of this book are the excerpts from Kathy's personal journal as she struggles with waiting for the man God will provide for her. This book changed the way I see God and the way I see being single resulting in a joy and contentment I had not felt before. It is a true blessing that should be shared!

Summary: Fall in Love with Jesus!!
Review: Dee Brestin and Kathy Troccoli have penned a very interesting book, whereby they characterize it as "abandoning yourself to the greatest romance of your life." With references to "Sacred Romance" by John Eldredge, this is essentially a woman's book, although I believe that men could benefit from its ideas.The purpose is to introduce readers to the ultimate love relationship of all time - a relationship with Jesus Christ. Using humor, contemporary love songs, real-life stories, and solid Biblical teaching, they both help women discover a life-changing intimacy with Christ.

Summary: Feminizes Christianity
Review: I am outraged that 2 such respectable Christian women would write a book like this. While all Christians should love Jesus whole heartedly, this book completly feminizes Christianity. It takes a universal Biblical concept and focuses it on women. If men were to read this book it would seem as if it was promoting homosexuality. The whole love relationship presented in this book is overly sexualized.
For example the author talks about having a human man to love her and hold her all through the night, and then says "
And He will take us home, and hold us, all through the night" - refering to Jesus. The book is full of analogies like that one. In talking about our relationship with Jesus, they say, "Do you remember that precious honeymoon time?" The first thing people think of when the word "honeymoon" comes up is sex...so how can this not be a dispicable comparison of God's pure love for us?
It saddens me that this book contains such blasphemy. A book about God's love for us and our response to that could have such a phenomenal impact, but this book abused that opportunity.
Christians are in need of good literature, but please pass this book by and in the mean time stick to the Bible, you can't go wrong with that.

Summary: falling in love with the book!
Review: i have not finished this book, but i am already impressed by the scriptural content. it has made me really thing differently about my relationship with the Lord, and how He relates to me. if you are single, Kathy really describes the yearning that most single women go through for an earthly husband.to think that the Lord actually feels those same things for me is amazing! i would most definatly recommend this book to anyone looking to grow in their faith and love of the Lord Jesus Christ!!

Summary: Falling In Love With Jesus: Abandoning Yourself to the Great
Review: I have read the book completely through and although the book is written for women as the target audience this book is a wonderful read for men too. Dee Brestin writes from the perspective of 30 + years of marriage and Kathy Troccoli writes from the perspective of a single person. The book is well done and gives real life lessons on how we all need to draw closer to Jesus and shares from the heart experiences of how these two Godly woman have grown closer to Jesus through their trials and their blessings. The two women share very personal stories from their lives letting you see them as human. They don't sugar coat their experiences but are open enough to admit their flaws and weaknesses and how God taught them and made them stronger and how Jesus drew them closer to His heart. They also admit that they are still learning and growning closer to Jesus day by day... I highly recommend this book. You will be blest. Once you pick it up you won't want to put it down. It's an easy read....

Summary: Falling In Love With Jesus
Review: I have read the book. It is a great collection of stories of two women who are believers in Jesus Christ. The book looks at their walks with Jesus. One from the perspective of a married woman with Children and one from the perspective of a single woman. The stories show the growth of both women and their deepening relationship with their Lord and Savior. The stories are open and honest. They will make you laugh and they will bring tears to your eyes. The book is an easy read. Once you pick it up you don't want to put it down. I highly recommend this book.

Summary: Jesus loves you unconditionally!
Review: I was immediately attracted to this book because I've read "Friendships of Women" by Dee Brestin and I've been a fan of Kathy Troccoli's music for about 10 years now. Kathy is single, and Dee has been married a long time, and the way they weave their stories together in this book just great! This book was an easy read and it moved very quickly (women with little time to read, have no fear!). Perhaps the thing that struck me most was how vulnerable Kathy was in relating her journal entries, many of which were addressed to the husband she has longed for. Even though she's prayed for a husband, she has really ministered powerfully to other single women and is a great example of making the most with whatever twists and turns life happens to take. Dee and Kathy used the titles of love songs as chapter and sub-chapter titles. I don't think that enhanced the book at all, at least not for me. Some people might really enjoy those, though. The book contains a lot of detailed information about the relationships between Mary and Martha and Jesus and between Ruth and Naomi and how we can learn from those stories how to have a more complete love relationship with our Savior Jesus Christ....
