Redeeming Love Francine Rivers 9781590525135 Books

I read Redeeming Love based on my best friend's constant suggestion to do so. I rarely read anymore because I am too busy and know that if I start, I run the risk of not being able to put the book down if it is that good. But for some reason after my friend recently referred to the book's amazing character "Michael" during a conversation regarding the topic of marriages...I just went online and ordered it. It arrived on Sunday and I finished all 450+ pages by 7AM Tuesday morning. I thought the book was incredibly powerful.
The [long] beginning is very challenging to get through (rough, tragic, disturbing) but I'm glad I stuck with it because I found myself---in the beginning the middle and end---weeping for the characters in the book and also weeping (in a good healing way) with how it made me look at my own marriage.
The main characters are Michael, Angel, and God (though his subtle but main storyline is not introduced until Michael's is) . Based on reviews, a handful of readers missed the opportunity to see that Michael does not have to represent all men, and Angel all women. Some reviewers resented Angel being cast in such a horribly "submissive" position throughout. But first, these readers should remember this story takes place during the time of the goldrush when women were not treated equal and were in submissive positions...but second, readers should note that is not how God saw her. The storyline is not at all about women's rights but instead about God's love. The big point is that God will communicate to those [lucky people who listen for him] that He wants them----those who are still safely in the confines of his herd--- to stop at nothing to bring those who are not (those who are the lost sheep), back to him.
Ironically, as it turned out, I identified more with Michael and his story...even though I am a woman. If you take this story only as a romance (as it is written), and don't realize that God's talking to / trying to reach these characters is a bigger storyline, then you miss the powerful message of this book.....that God's love is limitless and powerful...and unrelenting. He will never abandon you even when it may seem that way with certain trials you may endure. Redeeming Love conveyed just that, yet while gripping my attention the way any well-written captivating story would.

Redeeming Love Francine Rivers 9781590525135 Books Reviews

One of the best books I’ve ever read. I read this book before I was a Christian and it stayed with me all these years. I’ve never forgotten this story. It moved me. I give this book to nonbelievers as a way to open their minds/soften their hearts. It’s a must-read for all people!! Definitely one of my top three favorite books of all time!!!
I read for the pleasure of enjoying a good story. But this book is that and so very much more! It will guide you through a story of healing of spirit and hope for a future through faith in Christ and knowledge of his redemptive love, grace, and mercy. There are some books you read and forget. Then there are books you read and are inspired by. This book is that kind of book and more. I have read it at least seven times and each time I learn more about myself and Christ who carries me. Read this wonderful book and let God speak to your heart through it.
I struggle to find the words to explain what reading this book has done for my heart and soul. A "youtuber" of all people is who recommended this book. When asked in one of her Q&A videos what her favorite book was she said "Redeeming Love". She said the book "changed her life". I don't know what made me take notice, but I did, and purchased the book for my kindle and started reading that very night. While reading this I posted a quote from the book on my Facebook page. My daughter-in-law, (who I've had somewhat of a rocky relationship with) commented that this was her favorite book of all time and that she is on her fifth reading. Thus opened an opportunity for us to communicate and found something that we have in common. It's been a huge blessing to me and our relationship. I have been recommending this book to every woman I speak to. Pillars of the Earth has always been my favorite book. Now... we'll just say I have two favorites now. Happy reading!
I've bought this book at least ten times over the years to give to friends. It is one of the most amazing examples of how God loves and pursues us .... and is willing to let us suffer consequences in order to 'save' us.... But it's not at all 'Christian-y,' so would be a great book to give to a non-Christian friend. This was one of Francine's first Christian books (I knew her personally when I owned a Book near where she lived). Prior to her becoming a Christian she was continually a national best-seller in the secular markets. She is am amazing writer, a gripping storyteller, and a truly wonderful woman. I can't recommend her books enough. They are entertaining, can't-put-down stories that will make you think.

While it may seem more for the female market, many of my male friends have told me it has helped them better understand how to love their wives. and one of my female friends said it saved her marriage when she realized that her husband's kindness to her, even under difficult situations, was not wimpy-ness, but truley a sacrificial love. One of my Favorites. BUY IT!!
Tragic, historical, beautifully written story that will bring tears to your eyes and pull at your heart strings. This is a redone, biblical version of the story of Hosea but it's set in the 1800s Gold Rush California.
This is not for the faint of heart. The story revolves around a young girl accidentally sold into prostitution and the trials she goes through to find love with the man who becomes her husband and God. There are implied scenes that will make you cringe and some graphic scenes that made my stomach pitch and roll. This is a relatively long story, 497 pages, so be prepared for the roller coaster of emotions. I'm not one for biblical books but the biblical portion here is not overwhelming at all. It's actually written so well, you'll find yourself wrapped up in the story instead.
I highly recommend this as I have never been so moved by a book in my life. More than once I found myself screaming at the book, crying to myself and praying for a happy ending. Just make sure you set aside time to read where you won't be interrupted and bring tissues!!
