About this audiobook
Winner of the 2020 IAN Outstanding Religion Book of the Year Award
Our world feels more divided than ever. Polarizing politics, racial violence, economic inequity, sickness and suffering continue to leave us grappling with the loss of civility, respect, unity, and hope. Many of us question whether it's possible to cultivate a love big, revolutionary, and radical enough to overthrow hate and heal hurt. Award-winning author and public theologian Jacqueline A. Bussie not only believes it's possible—she knows it's the only path.
In Love Without Limits, now with a new introduction, Bussie imparts practical solutions for people of faith who yearn to love across division, difference, and even death in today's troubled times. Through poignant personal memoir, engaging theological reflection, inspiring true stories of transgressive friendships, creative readings of scripture, and surprising shout-outs to some of love's most unsung teachers, Bussie challenges listeners to answer God's call to practice a love so deep, it subverts the social order; so radical, it scandalizes the powerful; so capacious, it excludes no one.

I struggle with how I feel about my faith and religion in general, but this was a beautiful and touching book that had me in tears at several points. And always had me thinking. This is a book that will stay with me, I feel.
