Synopsis

Aren't Christians Supposed to Be the Loving Ones?Whether it's the news, social media, or well-intentioned friends, we're told daily to fear "others."We fear strangers, neighbors, the other side of the aisle, even those who parent differently. Andwhen we're confronted with something that scares us, our brain sees only two options:Attack or AvoidBut either way, polarization intensifies. What if you could defy your own instincts and choose a thirdoption—scandalous, disruptive, unthinkable LOVE? Sure, we love people who are like us, who areeasy to enjoy. Everyone does. But what about our enemies, the people we consider monsters?Loving them requires exceptional strength—strength only the Holy Spirit can provide. Love over Fear is a compelling guide to conquering fear with love in an age of polarization. Hear storiesof those who changed hearts and minds through radical love, learn how to practice disarming compassion,and discover the disruptive power of showing affection to monsters.
