Reviews
People shy away from Christianity for a myriad of reasons, the primary one often being confusion. What example can they look at that would embody what a Christian looks like? Is it the TV personality that seems to live on another planet? Perhaps it is the blundering, self-absorbed, self-righteous, irritating example of a Christian that is far too often portrayed by the media. As flaky as some of these examples can be, there still remains an ache in the human heart to meet up with the genuine and to know the real God—the one we hope is out there, the one who claims to truly love us.
Sharman Dow has done a masterful job of unmasking the Christian life—and in the process, without realizing it, she has unmasked what a Christian looks like. She does this by opening up her own heart and allowing us to share in her journey. It is a journey of honest discovery, with all the warts and stuff that comes with life. The true beauty of the book comes as she makes real the love of God. We get to see what He is really like, how He loves us in the midst of failures and trials, and how that love becomes the catalyst for successful change.
The great bible scholar Donald Grey Barnhouse once said, “Get the hay down out of the loft and onto the barn floors, where the cows can eat it.” Wouldn’t it be great if the basic truths about God and how He deals with us could be made simple and real? No Other Agenda But Love does just that. The easy manner in which Sharman writes enables readers to embrace the love of God. If you are just starting on your journey of faith or if you’ve been walking for quite a while and could use a reminder of where you’re supposed to be going, read and enjoy. I was personally refreshed and thankful that I did.
