Compelled By Love

This is a book that encourages, does not demand, life change. Looking at things from a different perspective. Heidi writes from her own experiences and encourages you that you too can make a difference. I find reading books by Heidi Baker helpful to keep my eyes on God and who He is and what He wants. I hope you too will enjoy reading it.

\r\nI want to live a life Compelled by Love, like Heidi Baker, a missionary in Africa who just pours out God's love.

It's not something that we could ever live on our own. We need God's grace, His supernatural empowering for life. \r\n Read LessRead less about \r\nI want to live a life Compelled by

I am reading this book for the third time in 6 months. Heidi says things that sound - well quaint on the first reading, but time and again they come alive, as if they are saturated by the spirit and are just waiting for a heart thats ready. If she says it, she really means it - pondering one paragraph frequently leads to worship and tears. Its fre...Read MoreRead more about I am reading this book for the third
