There are many perceptions of God. While this may look like a children's book (and it IS a book for all God's children), it presents a very grown-up image of God. God has no desire to condemn his children to eternal suffering. He wants to raise us up to be with him!. "Punishment never heals," the authors say, "only love heals." And, as St. John tells us, "God IS Love," so the best way to get in touch with God is to get in touch with the love in your heart. In a very readable, simple manner, the Linns present the deepest truths about God. God did not make us to break us. He made us to live in his love. In God's love, we are all sheep, and we are all goats. Good Goats!.

The word "Gospel" means "good news". But all too often Christian teaching emphasizes God's judgement and anger against sinners...hardly "good news"! This book emphasizes God's mercy in sending us Jesus, who came to save us all, because we are all sinners. The authors of this well-written little book contend, quite convincingly, that God will never give up until we are all saved. Very good news, indeed.

I really enjoyed this book and so did the youth group I am in charge of at church. It helps the reader to rework the negative views of God tht creep in as life hits you. It is well written and engaging.
