Compelled by Love, the true story of the ministry of Heidi and Rolland Baker in the war-torn, poverty and disease-stricken country of Mozambique, chronicles twenty-seven years of ministry among the poorest people on earth. The book is based upon the beatitudes as seen through the eyes of third-world pastors and missionaries. The Bakers have experienced God’s miraculous provision of food to thousands, brought physical healing and spiritual wholeness to His poorest children, and witnessed the transformed hearts of people caught in desperate life or death situations. Their stories prove the reality of God’s kingdom on earth, and demonstrate how to transform this world through the power of love.

This review is from: Compelled by Love: How to change the world through the simple power of love in action (Paperback)
This is one of those books that is life transforming. I read about a chapter a day and thought on it, prayed about it, was convicted, cried, and repented. I was slain by this book. It is the best book on God's love (besides the Word)that I have ever read. I'm sending it out for Christmas gifts. I hope everyone will read this book.

Just when you think you're life is hard...read this. Heidi is my hero next to Jesus. She tells all in her book about Love. Love God, Love people. I especially love how she references Mother Theresa so much in this book. You will fall in love with her heart for the lost, broken and poor. It's a easy & short read that will change you forever. You'll be undone.
