    Have you ever thought about the Bible as God’s love letter to you? Join Becky and Rachael Adams as they have a conversation about biblical love and practical ways to live out love for others.

    Rachael’s newest book: Everyday Prayers for Love: Learning to Love God, Others, and Even Yourself

    Rachael Adams was sitting in a church pew one Sunday morning when a love offering envelope caught her eye. She sensed the Lord whisper to her heart, “You are My love offering. I’ve given you My love. Now how are you going to give My love to those around you?” Rachael’s heart overflowed; she felt a burning desire to help others feel God’s precious gift.

    In Everyday Prayers for Love: Learning to Love God, Others, and Even Yourself, Rachael extends the tender invitation from a loving God to His beloved. She explores the concept of biblical love and then guides readers through practical ways to live out love for others.
