Do you ever wonder what your next step should be? If there is more to life? Do you crave something… better? Our culture and our own human nature drive us to crave many things: wealth, popularity, success, marriage, parenthood, and good health. None of these things are inherently bad, but neither will they satisfy our greatest craving-to be loved by our Savior. Through lessons drawn from the Bible and stories drawn from real life, The Life You Crave shows that God works in consistent and beautiful ways to give us a life that has more depth, fullness, substance, and meaning than we could ever imagine or achieve on our own. God draws close to us. He turns us around. And He fulfills every desperate, yearning, aching need with His pure and unending grace. Book jacket.
