Imagine a stormy day at sea, your ship yielding to a relentless wind, pummeled by crashing waves, subject to the awesome force of nature. A force that is both fierce and majestic. A power that is nothing short of furious.
Such is God's intense, consuming love for His children. It's a love that knows no limits, and no boundaries. A love that will go to any lengths, and take any risks, to pursue us.
Renowned author and ragamuffin Brennan Manning presents a love story for the brokenhearted. For those who are burdened by heavy religion. For those who feel they can never measure up. It is a provocative and poignant look at the radical, no-holds-barred love of our Heavenly Father. It is a message that will forever change how you view God.

reviewed The Furious Longing of God on May 19, 2012 The Furious Longing of God
A Stirring and Focusing Read
Brennan Manning has written a provocative little devotional that will likely comfort the afflicated while afflicting the comfortable. This is a series of short devotional thoughts that should provide fodder for the thoughtful Christian to ruminate over continually.
Brennan is known by manner for his honest stream of consciousness type writing and he doesn't disappoint here. Whether tying the love of God and Christ as evidenced upon the cross back the the furious passionate longing of the Song of Solomon or providing anecdotal yet powerful images from the acquaintances from Brennan's past, whether prince or pauper, this book serves to shake up the world of any careful reader who allows themselves to open their hearts first and their minds following.
The book itself can be read in one sitting. In that regard it is a piece of devotional minimalism. The power however is found not in reading quickly and setting it down, but rather taking small bites and chewing long and hard to take it from the eyes, through the brain and into a deeper level of challenge.
I came away from this read feeling I had spent time over a cup of coffee with a mature friend and both encouraged and challenged to go deeper with the issues it reinforces.
5 Stars. A very moving and meaningful book which I fully recommend.
