Teach Me How to Love

In this 7-day devotional, Kerstin guides us gently through Paul's description of godly love found in 1 Corinthians 13.

We discover that love is very practical and impacts the choices we make and the words we speak each day. With openness and realism, Kerstin acknowledges the everyday battles we face as we have the option to react to situations around us - or to choose love.

At the end of each daily message there is a prayer which expands on the heartfelt cry, "Lord, teach me how to love..."

"That Kerstin has written a seven-day devotional based on three verses demonstrates the depth of her scriptural wisdom. This is an emotionally and relationally intelligent insight into a well-known passage of scripture, and will help you to go deeper in living out the love that we receive from our loving Father."

"If you want to live a comfortable life, happy with your level of love towards others, don't read this book! However, if you're up for a challenge, to be stirred into stepping out beyond where you thought you could go, then read on and be changed! This was my experience after reading these devotionals."
