Unfailing Love: A Woman's Walk Through First John
Few women are better at communicating contagious enthusiasm for the truths of Scripture than bestselling author Karol Ladd. Exploring 1 John with her readers, Karol puts her finger on the longing for faithful and fulfilling love that’s deep inside every woman’s heart.
Step by step, Karol helps her readers understand what happens when they embrace the truth of God’s love:
They can experience His joy, strength, and comfort in daily life. They are transformed, because His love changes the way they see themselves. They begin to think differently about their circumstances and the people in their life. They can express His love to others through their words and actions, shining His light in dark places.As readers see the apostle John’s picture of how God is Light, Love, and Life, they will experience how He gives meaning to their existence, victory over their discouragements, and hope to the world.

Are you experiencing true love?
The wellspring of a woman’s heart runs deep. We long to feel the security of faithful love, yet often we try to fill our hearts with unsatisfying pursuits and less-than-perfect lovers. Although it’s easy to talk about filling our hearts with God’s love, it’s another thing to embrace His love, feel it, and allow it to color the fabric of our lives.
UNFAILING LOVE will take you on a journey through 1 John. Ms. Ladd helps you to experience the reality of God’s generous love. As you begin to grasp its height and depth
. you’re transformed, seeing yourself and your circumstances in a fresh new light.
. you get a truer picture of Jesus, God’s Son in a way that helps you navigate the false loves, temporary pleasures, and seductions of today’s culture.
. you’re able to graciously, compassionately, and creatively love others by your words and actions.
UNFAILING LOVE is not a devotional. This is a book for serious study. There is a lot of reading to do, including a personal story, teaching and scripture included, a suggested reading of more scripture, a section that shows you some additional truths, and then questions for you to answer. There are spaces included to write your answers are, but if you don’t like writing in books or can’t write small enough for the space provided, then you might want to keep a notebook handy.
If you are looking for a deeper UNFAILING LOVE in your relationship with God/Jesus then you will want to read UNFAILING LOVE. It will open your eyes and your heart. $12.99. 240 pages.

I am a big fan of the author of this book, Karol Ladd. Her other books have made a difference in so many lives that I was really looking forward to reading this study book. The subtitle to the book is A Woman’s Walk Through First John.
This book is great for learning about the characteristics of the Lord and how much He loves us. Learning about all the Lord is and how much He loves you will change your life. Understanding this love will help you in your day to day life and especially with feeling accepted for who you are. Understanding the love of the Lord will help build your relationship with Him and therefore help you in your other relationships.
I found this whole book to be very practical and easy to read. There are discussion questions at the end that are very helpful in making this study personal. I thought they were very thought provoking. I also liked the section on memorizing scripture. The best idea was how to draw pictures of what the verse is saying to you so when you start to quote the verse you will see the picture and remember the words of the verse.
I gave this book 5/5 stars because it was educational, easy to read, and will be a real encouragement for any woman who reads it!
I would like to thank NetGalley and the publisher for the copy of this book I enjoyed reading. I gave an honest review based on my opinion of what I read.

The greatest love story of all time, our relationship with Christ as his church the bride. We can experience joy, strength and comfort in His deep love for us. His love never fails us and there is security in knowing that deep in our heart.
Karol Ladd takes us on a devotional journey through 1 John, following in the Holy Spirit inspired words of John, beloved of Jesus. John was confident in his love and relationship with Christ and sought to share that we as followers can have that also.
In a 6 parts Karol Ladd invites us to learn through 1 John of
Living in the light of God's Great Love
Doing the Will of God
Being Beautiful
Recognizing Real Faith
Loving because we are Loved
Knowing we are His
This book works fantastically as a morning devotional. Karol focuses on a specific passage in 1 John, relates it to a story or time in her or someone she has mets life. Relates it to us. Shows us how John came to that passage, and encourages us to grow. She assigns additional reading at the end of the lesson, and that was helpful to me in delving in a bit deeper in the word during my time.
Experiencing true love, the dream of having the greatest love story ever told can happy in your relationship with Jesus if you will let it.

I enjoy Karol Ladd because she is encouraging,godly and speaks from her heart. In person or in print, Karol is pointing to Christ while helping others to discover and use their unique voice for His glory. Unfailing Love, takes us through I John, looking at the themes of God as light, love and life. This study is great for personal or group study.
Karol reminds us that God desires a relationship with us, and that we are lavishly (so love that word) loved by Him. His love will transform us and our relationships. He IS Unfailing Love. Take a walk with God and Karol through I John, you will be glad you did:)
