His Love Never Quits

His Love Never Quits

• His Love Never Quits: Finding Purpose Through Your Pain by Cherie Hill on Amazon

Although I was excited to read His Love Never Quits because of the many 4- and 5-star reviews, in the end this book didn't speak clearly to me. There are very few people who don't need ongoing reminders of God's everlasting love and provision for them, and I chose this book because I'm one of those people—maybe especially now that it looks like my life has dead-ended, to use words from author Cherie Hill.

Yes, the author cites possible (even probable) human situations of loss, frustration, loneliness, and disappointment; she quotes a lot of scripture, too. Hill seems to breeze through many marginally connected and sometimes unrelated scriptures in order to remind us God is there, God cares, everything will turn out okay in the end. At times her habits of scriptural interpretation strike me as unsophisticated to the extent they sometimes end up being less than responsible. The best I can say is His Love Never Quits simply is not a book for me at this time.
