    About this ebook

    This book is written to encourage you to love one another. Not always easy, but it’s a command from our Lord Jesus Christ. Has God ever told you or commanded you to love someone you find hard to love? Have you ever heard yourself say, "You can't be serious, Lord, you want me to love who?" And then when you give in and love that person, he or she can become your very good friend.
    This book will help you understand God's special love that He has for each of us. By reviewing 1 Corinthians 13, the love chapter, and Galatians 5:22-23, the Fruit of the Spirit, we not only see His love, but the love we should have for one another.
    At the end of each chapter you will be challenged to do just that. So have your writing instrument and notebook ready and be honest with yourself.

      Doni, my wife, for encouraging me to continue to write even though at times I wonder why I do. Many thanks for your love and encouragements, you have always been my one and only true love.

      To my editor Chris Wright, not only for putting all the periods, commas etc. in the right places, but going beyond by designing the cover and taking care of all the details in having this book published. Many thanks.

      You’ve Got to be Kidding, Lord. You want me to tell WHO about You?

      Share the Gospel? Does the thought make you want to hide in bed with the blankets over your head? If it does, you’re not alone, but help is at hand. Here is what Chuck Antone, Jr. says in this exciting book written with great humor and much understanding:

      Are you ready to experience sharing Christ with the lost? Does one name keep popping into your mind? Has God been whispering in your ear? If so, be challenged, make that contact and see what God can do.

      Be encouraged by just being available. Just be the instrument, the tool. Let God do the work. He is much better at it than we are, for He has had a lot more experience in bringing someone to His Son, Jesus Christ. After all, He is God, the Mighty One, the Powerful One, the Creator, Our Savior, Our Father, the One and Only God.
