He doesn't just talk about change, he really is change, as Love Does chronicles in such a vivid way. Yet, Love Does doesn't leave you feeling like you want to celebrate its author, it awakens a sense deep within that you, too, have an outrageous role to play in God's unfolding story or rescue and repair." --Louie Giglio, Passion Conferences/Passion City Church "An interesting and compelling story (with Young Life roots) that ends with a practical challenge and punch: 'love does' and God can use you to do it " --Denny Rydberg, President, Young Life "Every once in a while someone like Bob Goff shows up to remind us that some things matter a lot more than others. Love Does has a kind of 'north star' effect that will push you to refocus your life and energy on what is most significant. It doesn't just invite you to respond with your God-given potential, it invites you to become a part of what God can do beyond your potential." --Reggie Joiner, Founder and CEO of Orange "We liked the book a lot. Mostly, the balloons on the cover. The rest was pretty good too. Lots of stories about how God helps us." --Aedan, Asher and Skye Peterson ages 13, 12 and 9 "This may look like a book. It's not. It is an invitation to enter into the greatest adventure you have ever known--your life as it was meant to be lived. Hang on " --Michael Hyatt, Author, Platform: Get Noticed in a Noisy World, MichaelHyatt.com "Bob's ability to love people brings contagious hope and inspiration wherever he goes. The power of love showcased in this book will surely touch the hearts and souls of many people. Read Love Does and find a friend in one the world's best hidden secrets, a person who shows how love can create connection and make a difference--even across oceans." --George Tsereteli, Deputy Chairman of the Parliament of Georgia (former Russian Republic), The runaway New York Times bestseller!

    I am still laughing at some of the stories! Bob sees life through a kaleidoscope of hope, seeing the beauty of life. He takes on the hard issues of life with hope, embodying God's given love. Love is a big Verb in Bob's life and the way he relates to world. A must read book!

  • Love Does.... Doesn't quite capture the sense of daring portrayed in Goff's life.

    We are reading a chapter a morning together after breakfast. Bob Goff has the ability to write about small pieces of his life experiences, some almost unbelievable, with humor and serious application to life. He has lived life on the edge and with grit most of us don't manage. He is funny. His applications for living life in faith with God are helpful but not guilt-producing in any way. I recommend this book for light reading and meaningful application to life.

  • Love Does by Bob Goff

    Engaging writing that is encouraging and inspirational. I look forward to reading any other books by Bob Goff. His real life stories are being what many of us would ever experience. Yet he makes it seem achievable if we have an attitude of yes.
