When you finish the last page and close the back cover of "Furious," you feel a compulsion to go back and start the whole thing all over again. Sometimes there just isn't enough highlighter ink for a book written by Brennan Manning. This book is a very quick read compared to that of The Ragamuffin Gospel, but the messages shared are just as impactful. Brennan's mission is to help people understand "the reckless raging fury of God's love." I'm onto the next Manning book...because I just can't get enough of that message. It breaks my heart that there are so many harmful messages (i.e. bad theology) out there that are keeping people away from the God who IS LOVE.Thankfully, Brennan Manning's books are refreshing water for dry and thirsty souls who so desperately need to hear of the furious longing of God for them. Brennan reminds us that Love is not just a quality of God, but his very Identity. One of my favorite quotes from the book is this:"Jesus spoke of the Life of Grace, amazing grace, not as some theological abstraction or concept. For Jesus, Grace was relationship - the presence of Abba himself in our hearts through the gift of the Holy Spirit."
Utterly inspiring, moving, and lifting. I recommend this book to everyone living.
