I grew up a religious kid in a religious family, but religion couldn’t help me. It couldn’t heal the hurt, bitterness, and rejection that was growing inside me, devouring me from the inside out. It was during my sophomore year at the University of Maryland that God got my attention and showed me a better way, a way built on relationship, not religion. The discipleship principles that I learned then saved my life and changed the entire course of it. What I experienced is exactly what the book, Love Story, and this Love Story Workbook strive to pass on to their readers. The approach of Love Storyis to use the analogy of the stages of a romantic relationship to transport readers on a journey of discovery that will ignite a personal rapport with the Creator. With helpful studies and videos, this workbook enhances the Love Story experience and provides practical next steps for each chapter of Love Story. Together, they can help you fall in love with God for the first time, or for those who have a walk with Him, Love Story and the Love Story Workbook are a great way to strengthen and/or rekindle the bond that already exists. Read on, embrace the Love Story, and let Jesus transform your mind and soul as you embark on the adventure of true discipleship. It is time to trade in religion for something more.
