Each day involves countless interactions with others–not only among family and friends but also with neighbors, coworkers, even telephone solicitors. An attitude of love may ot be your top priority in some of these encounters. But what if the ancient maxim “love your neighbor as yourself” applied to everyone, including those you meet in the most ordinary circumstances?

By giving love, instead of grabbing for it, you’ll become the person others want to love in return, no matter what their role in your life.

Relationship expert Dr. Gary Chapman applies the seven characteristics of authentic love to family life, friendship, the workplace, and beyond. Eye-opening personal assessments uncover relational strengths and weaknesses, while real-life stories and ideas for building habits of love will inspire you to grow into the complete person you were meant/created to be.

Capture a vision that will transform your relationships and make your corner of the world a better place–by choosing Love As a Way of Life. Includes self-tests; practical ideas; and a discussion guide for churches and ministry groups.


I've barely scratch the surface but I like it already. It's a very insightful, inspiring and eye-opening book. It is more than a book for me. It's a meditation. As I was reading, it makes me ponder my way of life and ask myself how or did I manifest love in that moment? A good book for a good coffee-Nespresso maybe.
