More About the Author

Michelle McKinney Hammond is the author of over 30 books on living, loving, and overcoming. She is the President and Founder of HeartWing Ministries, which hosts annual DIVA Weekend Getaway Conferences. As a relationship and empowerment coach, internationally known speaker, singer and television co-host, it is Michelle's mission and passion to help women and men to first be intimately connected to God and then empowered to become their personal best in order to experience victory in every area of their lives.

Michelle's ministry began many years ago when she suffered a devastating leg injury from being hit by a car. The accident was a spiritual turning point, a wake up call to embrace her purpose and fulfill her destiny. Those bedridden months gave her time to complete her first bestselling book, "What to Do Until Love Finds You."

Michelle eventually left behind her career as an advertising art director/writer/producer for clients such as Coca Cola USA, McDonald's Corporation, Ford Motor Company, and others, to speak to audiences, encouraging people to fulfill their God-given purpose in life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Get to know the One Who Loves You the Most, March 17, 2000

Are you ready to take your walk with God to an entirely new level? Get a Love Life is a tool to do just that. I have never read a more PRACTICAL book on how to attain a closer relationship with Jesus Christ. Michelle will challenge you to fall deeply in love with the One who Loves you the most. God used this book to change my perspective on my relationship with HIM. I have been blessed to have a wonderful earthy father, so seeing God as Father was never a problem. Sadly to say, I have not always made the wisest choices in the relationship department. It was a struggle to see Jesus as the Lover of my soul. Now I see Him as my caring, wonderful, loving, faithful (I could go on and on...) Heavenly Husband who persuade me with such a passion. I also found myself in a different perspective. As a single woman I was shocked to see that I am allowed to have a romantic life. It just has to be with the right person.....Jesus Christ. I can walk around with a smile from ear to ear because my Heavenly Husband is wooing me every moment of the day. I am the wife of Jesus Christ. There are certain things that the wife of Jesus should not do and places that she cannot go. I would not want to grieve my earthly husband, so I do not want to grieve the heart of my Heavenly Husband. This was the perfect follow up to The Power of Femininity.

I am giving this book to all of my friends. I highly recommend this book for the seasoned believer and the new Christian. God has given Michelle a wonderful gift. She is using this to give God glory. She gives a tip at the end of each chapter of how to PRACTALLY cultivate a love relationship with Jesus. They work! I have never been closer with God. I can FINALLY say that I am Sassy, Single and Satisfied! This book is great for married women as well. I can't wait for my teenager sisters in the Lord read it. It will sure save them for a great deal of heartache. I recommend any of Michelle's books. You won't be disappointed. Allow God to speak to you as He gently wraps His arms around you.

*Michelle, thank you for introducing me to the man of my dreams. I have one question.....Does Shirley REALLY exist?

5.0 out of 5 stars A must read for all, May 15, 2004

This book really blessed my life as a babe in Christ. Michelle gave really good points on how we neglect the Lover of Our Soul, how He expects to be treated and gives practical ways to improve your relationship. This book will definately make you think twice about the lyrics of "Falling in Love with Jesus." I would recommend Get a Love Life to any one, no matter your current relationship with God because we all can fall deeper in love with Him. You do so many things for the 'love of your life' here on earth but what do you do for the Lover of Your Soul?

4.0 out of 5 stars A good read - a good perspective of relationships, September 20, 2004

This review is from: Get a Love Life (Paperback)

This was pretty good book. I have often thought of myself as in-love with Christ and considered my time with him as the most cherished. This book pens that idea on paper. It starts with a bang that drew me in, using a real life love affair for comparison. Unfortunately it did slow down a bit by the end, with the insight a little less "ground-breaking or revelational". That's the only reason I give this book 4 instead of 5 stars. If you are a woman looking for a unique perspective on your relationship with God or you having trouble keeping your relationship going, this book is for you. FYI, it also has relationship tips which can easily apply to your relationship with your mate. I'm glad I bought the book and I'm sure I'll use it on-going, for reference.
