Explore the Depths of Love Woven Through Sacred StoriesEmbark on a profound journey through time, where age-old tales reveal the very essence of the human heart "By Love Inspired: The Bible's Most Heartfelt Stories" opens the treasury of biblical narratives that have shaped morality, inspired hope, and fanned the flames of devotion for millennia.Feel the first heartbeat of affection as you encounter Adam and Eve in their paradisiacal cradle of humanity. Witness Abraham's unwavering trust as a testament to an immeasurable love for both his God and his son. Traverse through the complexities of human relations and divine symbolism with Ruth and Boaz, and see the foreshadowing of Christ's redemptive affection in the profound concept of a Kinsman Redeemer.The narrative tapestry becomes richer as you immerse yourself in accounts of covenantal friendships and the passionate poetry of Solomon, exploring the depth of royal affections. Defiance in love becomes strikingly clear through the steadfastness of Hosea for Gomer and Esther's brave heart throbbing with allegiance for her people. Witness a mother's indomitable spirit in Jochebed and Hannah, whose stories resonate with every parent's whisper of undying love.Marvel at the prophets who heralded Divine Love, and transition to the New Testament, where the tales of Mary's all-encompassing ardor for Jesus and John's intimate disciplehood draw you closer to the heartbeat of the gospel. Learn from parables and miracles that redefine the expression of love with societal outcasts and those in desperation, culminating in a Last Supper that redefines communion and betrayal.The crucifixion emerges as an ultimate sacrifice, while the resurrection triumphantly heralds love's victory over death. With every chapter, from the nurturing early Church to the wisdom-spilling letters of Paul, you become a part of the narrative--a tapestry woven with threads of reconciliation, healing, inclusivity, and the profound sagacity of love's endurance.Let your spirit be moved by the poignant anecdotes of outsiders embraced by love, the focused dedication of love in adversities, and the prophetic assurance of love's eternal promise. "By Love Inspired" is not merely a recounting of tales--it's an invitation to discover and embrace the cardinal virtue that holds our existence together, beckoning you to find your place in love's enduring story.

About the author

As a nurse, we see people at their most vulnerable times of their lives. Nurses provide care through experience, teaching and love. Nursing was a calling for me after a terrible accident in the oilfield where I was the Health, Safety, and Environmental Manager. We lost two wonderful men and two of my men lost legs. These men were not only coworkers, but they were also personal friends. This experience was devastating to my whole family. God spoke to me leading me to nursing. By listening to the Lord, I received my bachelor's degree in nursing from the University of Texas at Tyler in 2006.

In September of 2023, my father was dying slowly. My handicapped mother could not take care of him. Following God again, I quit my job to go home to take care of my father and mother through this difficult time. I have always lived by the scripture, "God will always provide." My husband was a huge support during the hard times with my father. Not sure how we would have taken such good care of my father without his help getting the living room ready for a hospital bed and hospice.
