Synopsis

If you’ve ever been discouraged by Christianity—whether you’ve been a lifelong churchgoer or someone who left religion a long time ago—this book will change your life.If you’ve ever been discouraged by Christianity—whether you’ve been a lifelong churchgoer or someone who left religion a long time ago—this book will change your life.

God only spoke twice while Jesus was on earth. (We should probably sit up and pay attention.) Both times He said: Jesus is “marked by my love.” No tattoo. No handshake. No team colors or logos or code words. The only thing that marked Jesus Christ and the only thing that would mark His followers—love.

Consider. . .
How would I treat someone who I disagree with in a political discussion if I ran everything I said through a filter of love?
How would I care for someone who is contemplating an abortion if I were marked by His love?
How would I help a friend going through a divorce if I really loved him and his family?
What would be different about my social media posts or comments if I really loved the people I was responding to or writing about?
How would I show love toward the gay couple that moved in next door if I was actually following in Jesus’ steps?
How would I treat the Hispanic family who I think may have crossed the border illegally and are living off government welfare if I were marked by his love?
How would I respond to the homeless guy begging on the curb in a loving way?

This is real life stuff. If every follower of Jesus was truly marked by love, it would change the world.

Goodreads review by Jeff on October 02, 2018

Essential Reading. For Everyone. Christian or Not. Stevens does an excellent job of speaking his message and not really worrying about whose toes he steps on - indeed, he almost seems to make it a point at times to try to step on *everyone's* toes in some way. Yes, the book comes across as overly pr......more

Love One Another “Stop telling people they need Jesus, and instead show them they matter. Stop using fear or scare tactics and start loving. Stop talking and start showing. When the people God brings into your life begin to experience a truly giving, sacrificial, unconditional, authentic, and vulner......more

Marked by Love: A Dare to Walk Away from Judgment and Hypocrisy by Tim Stevens What does it mean to be Marked by Love? “People are done with Christianity. I am done with Christianity. At least the Americanized version that dresses up on Sunday and the rest of the week is gossiping, backbiting, jealou......more

Goodreads review by Joan on October 31, 2018

Stevens reminds us in this world of anger and hate that Jesus was marked by love. He has included thirty readings, thirty challenges to see if our lives are marked by love. It is only by love that we can change the world. My favorite reading was the fifth one, Famous Last Words. After telling a coupl......more

Goodreads review by Zachary on October 09, 2018

I don’t know much about Tim Stevens beyond what he has written about in his new book, Marked by Love, but I know enough to the point where I wouldn’t mind sharing a cup of coffee with him in some café at some point. That might strike you as strange, for Stevens once called himself a fundamentalist C......more
