Within the past year, I set the lofty goal of mastering the art of love. According to Malcolm Gladwell, skill mastery requires ten thousand hours of practice. I pulled out my calculator and punched in some numbers. At eight hours a day, seven days a week, I could be a love master in approximately 3.434 years! All I have to do to accomplish this ambitious feat is to love and to love some more, even when I would rather not! If this sounds overly simplified, you caught me...read the book and see how I am doing dear reader. Come along with me as I work my way toward God and the way he wants us all to live and love. The collection of written pieces (originally published as blogs) within this book move from heavy to light, shadow to brightness and sometimes there is the murky in-between. You will see a repeat of themes as I make sense of my experiences and gain insights along the way. The writing is raw; it is soul exposure for the sake of self and others. I am assuming we can relate to one another or at least, this is my hope. My motivation to become a love master stemmed from a keen and painful awareness of my own lack of training in the noble ways of handling difficult situations and interactions with other humans. I know there is a better way, a godly way. Jesus came to show us how and he is the perfect example of the excellence we can live. Jesus is the ultimate Love Master. I invite you to join me inside the pages of the book you hold in your hands. Love Mastery is within your reach.
