Bold Love Quotes

“I know without a question you love me and you know I love you, but I am unwilling to let your awkwardness with personal conversations keep us at a distance. Now let's be clear. I'll call when I want to, for as long as I want to, and I will ask anything I want about how you are feeling, what you think of as you face death, what your relationship is with the Lord, and anything else I want to know. You can do as you choose. Hang up on me. Refuse to answer. Refuse to feel. Do what you want, but I will too.”
― Dan B. Allender, Bold Love

“God is continually, literally, second-by-second covering our sin under His Son's blood and forgiving us our sins. God cannot love us unless He forgives us and cannot forgive us without a commitment to love us.”
― Dan B. Allender, Bold Love

“A simple person must be encouraged to see the Christian life as a war, not only with the world, the devil, and the flesh, but with God Himself.”
― Dan B. Allender, Bold Love

“Our love ought to draw others to a taste of life that satisfies like no other, and our strength ought to warn others that pursuit of a false god leads to an abyss that will eventually violate and destroy their soul. Feeding our enemies means giving them a taste of life that both draws them to hunger for what they’ve been created for and repels them from what would destroy their life. In essence, bold love is a unique blend of invitation and warning—a pull toward life and push away from death.”
― Dan B. Allender, Bold Love

“At the deepest level, the taste of forgiveness must come from the One most offended in order for life and love to be restored. In every case of sin, it is God who is most hurt and offended by our refusal to love. It is His forgiveness that is central to any movement to love after love has been trampled under the muck of hatred.”
― Dan B. Allender, Bold Love

“If you love the unlovable, let another person's desires take precedence over your own, or even worse, love someone who has hurt you, then you are likely love addicted, codependent, and emotionally unhealthy.”
― Dan B. Allender, Bold Love

“Lust almost always becomes perverse.”
― Dan B. Allender, Bold Love
