Product Description
by Jeanie Miley (Author)
This book isn't about the quest for love. It is about waking up to the love that is at our essence. Jesus sets the bar high for us with his teachings about love, and great writers, scientists, poets, and teachers take it as a given that love-loving and being loved-is necessary for human beings to flourish. Fierce Love is about learning to see yourself and know yourself as a conduit of love, operating from a full heart instead of trying to find someone to whom you can hook up your emotional hose and fill up your empty heart. Readers who accompany Miley on this journey will find themselves, like her, changed, humbled, and inspired as they explore what it means to respond to God's commandments to love-authentically, fearlessly, deeply, fiercely.
