FINDING LOVE BY ROBBINS K VERNON Unlike books that impose a single meaning on scripture, Vernon K. Robbins embarks on a fascinating journey to uncover how love itself evolves across the New Testament, from a hidden secret in Mark's gospel of suffering to a cosmic, mystical force in the writings of John. Written from the crucible of pandemic isolation, this is not just a work of scholarship but a deeply personal quest, asking how divine love can be found in the midst of modern crisis and personal transformation. Robbins invites readers to discover a surprising truth: that the Bible's central commandment wasn't born fully formed, but grew and deepened through the struggles of the early faith community. It is a roadmap for anyone who has ever wondered how ancient words about love can still call us to profound personal change and courageous action in a fractured world.
It is odd - typically I only read about 5 five star books a year, but I've already read 4 in 2026, thanks to the recommendations from this group. My five star reads have been:
The First Unicorn, Miracle on Wonder IslandI know authors aren't supposed to push their book and I don't want to break any rules, but how does one gain exposure when one cannot talk about it?
How can I get my book listed on listopia?
I don't get on Goodreads that often because frankly, I know I shouldn't market here, but I honestly don't know what to do, otherwise.
It's a really good story, a Christian allegorical fantasy as a parallel of Jesus' life written for middle grade readers. I'd love to meet new people and discuss the book but don't want to be a pest.
Thanks for reading.
