About this title

From the Back Cover:

Love: A Holy Command is an inspirational treasury of quotations from the works of Oswald Chambers, the world’s most beloved devotional writer and author of My Utmost for His Highest.

When asked about the greatest commandment, Jesus summarized it with a single word: Love. He then stated the priorities of love—love God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength, and love your neighbor as yourself.

How can you obey this holy command? According to Oswald Chambers, “Love is the sovereign preference of my person for another person, and Jesus Christ demands that that other person be Himself.” We cannot truly love apart from God because God is love. We love because He first loved us, and genuine love comes from God and flows through us.

Chambers will inspire and challenge you with his simple and direct biblical wisdom. And as you begin to comprehend God’s great love for you, that love will begin to change your world. Each page also features questions for your own personal reflection.
